FYI there are corporate clients (I can think of a very large university) who administratively prevent users from downloading updated components of anything. This client in question is stuck on v7, so none of my flash v8 will play.

For "How can I get Adobe Flash Player deployed to an intranet?" then there's an intranet kit available: http://www.adobe.com/licensing/distribution/ For "Is the general public able to upgrade their Players?" then yes, they are, at the rate of well over five million a day, making it the most rapidly-adopted software in history. http://www.adobe.com/products/player_census/flashplayer/version_penetration. html For "How can I persuade my client that it's okay to specify Adobe Flash Player 9?" then the most effective technique seems to be to work to first discover what their actual objections are. jd -- John Dowdell .
