    Sote not showing for Mac users, kinda desperate!

    Hi, and thanks!
    We just launched our new site, only to find out that a couple of Mac users are reporting seeing only a black screen and a scroll bar. Any idea why this may be happening?

    Two different file names in the "object" and in the "embed" tags!
    Which is it? "v2test1.swf" or "v2.swf"?

    Nope! I'm on PC! Can't afford such a nice machine as a Mac! (sarcastic)
    I have enough of working on Macs every day... When home I need to relax!

    Dang, still showing a solid black page for Mac user, an important customer of ours. I have no Mac to test with, can some Mac people pleeeeaaase give a look and tell me if the site comes up?

    Has anyone heard of any special issues with Mac's and flash sites?

    Off playing Stratego with their imaginary friends I guess.
    Maybe they're down on me because I'm an obvious Winblowzer.

    Thank you Ms. Paris and Mr. O'Newb. I've had a suspicion about this guy's plugin, and have asked him about it, but some people have a hard time hearing certain things in regards to their computer. He kept saying "Real Player" and so on. I'll shoot him a link to macromedia update, again, tomorrow.

    Thanks again you two.

    Well the Real Player can play some .swf files. Were you giving him a link or directly sending him a .swf?

    I was getting him the regular www.cscproducts.com link, and I'll spoon-feed him the macromedia update tomorrow. Just to complicate matters, he's also an AOL. I'm not sure when kind of trouble that will raise at the update site because I know next to nothing about their browser.
