RE: IE3.01 for mac = NO FLASH?

[Brad Bechtel]

Brent,


The problem is that MSIE doesn't recognize the Flash files as a valid format when accessed from the hard drive. 


You can add the MIME type in your preferences to get it to work properly.  Here are the steps for MSIE 3 and 4.


1. Choose Edit > Preferences.

2. Under Receiving Files, choose File Helpers.

3. Click on the Add button to add the following information:


Representation:

Description: Shockwave Flash

Extension: .swf

MIME type: application/x-shockwave-flash


File Type:

Application: Flash (browse to where your local copy of Flash is located)

File Type: SWFL

File Creator: MFL2


Handling:

How to handle: View with Plug-in

Application: Shockwave Flash NP-PPC or Shockwave Flash NP-68K (browse to the appropriate plugin for your machine)


Click on OK.  


Repeat these steps with .SPL instead of .SWF if you want to view older FutureSplash files as well.
