Hi, I worked some more on the "gray world on Mac" problem and the plot thickened really as I drilled down the code. At that time, I do have a reproable case of "gray world" on Mac and no less than 3 ways of fixing it, each corresponding to a bona fide bug or, at least, oddity. So let's review them

Hi, Whump. Is there a reason you recommend against sniffing headers for the user agent? I recognize that some people run browsers that allow them to change this, but they are few and they likely don't spoof it to look like the SL browser, and if they do, not displaying flash for them probably won't
