Hi Robert,
Unfortunately we haven’t been able
to recreate your experiences ourselves. The HTML that ships with Flex is meant
to work with all browsers. It works in IE including dealing with the Eolas
issue and it works in Firefox. We’ve scanned everything we can think of
to see if Firefox ships with _javascript_ disabled and can’t see anything
to indicate that it does. It would be surprising to us for Firefox to disable
_javascript_ on install considering that it is the Firefox folks who own the
_javascript_ spec and are planning on major updates in Firefox 2. So far you’ve
been the only person to report this to us. As mentioned on adobe.com we use
SWFObject to manage detection on the web site. Flex ships with the HTML
wrappers that deal with the new active content restrictions and works in all
browsers as far as we know.
If you can point us towards more info we
can look into it.
Matt

Please answer / Best method for Flash install for everyday users
Dear Adobe,
Internet Explorer requires SWFObject (and it works).
Firefox now disables _javascript_ and some of my potetial visitors say they can't
enter the site.
I've noticed Adobe appears to:
1. Run/Install Flash for IE.
2. Display JPEG or GIF for Flash Movies and place a notice that "This site
may not have all it's features enabled" But for any interactive
content it appears to use DHTML menus.
Is the recommended method.
It seems with so many browser changes (ie MS Eolas loss, Firefox disabling
_javascript_ from the get-go o installation) that it would be more important than
ever to get one tried and true method that works and deals with all
contigencies of all major browsers.
