Title: Yamaha web site
Post by: Ray on Apr 04, 2009, 17:09:24
I'm looking at AV amps/receivers on the Yamaha web site when I load this page (http://www.yamaha-uk.com/av_amps_receivers/index.cfm?product_id=210&specification=1) in FF I can't load all the page content, it is telling me to upgrade my flashplayer, but I've got the latest version installed  ??? Works fine in IE though, can anyone else see this if they try the page in FF?

Thanks, Rik, must be their web site isn't compatible with FF then.  :)

Looks like. When they refer to needing Flash 6, you tend to feel they've missed something, don't you. :)

It says: "Already have Flash Player? Click here if you have Flash Player 6 installed."  If you click there, the flash images then work.  :dunno:

No problems in Firefox on my Mac. Does that mean I can blame Windows? >:D

I get the same as the OP. FWIW it seems nowadays that I can get Flash to work seamlessly with either IE or Firefox but not both. As soon as I do the requested upgrade/download with one the other starts complaining.
