Nice project man. I’ve got IE 7 and it works really fine. I guess many people will find it useful. Keep up the good work.

Hi John,

I had the Flash Player version on my site for ages too buy I feel that having a site dedicated to it, with an easy to remember URL will be helpful for people (I know it will be for me; I’ve felt the need on many occasions).

@Guy: That would be because it’s a tiny bit of static text typed in by the monkey behind the keyboard (me!) :)

Yes i figured that much, just wondered why it was telling me about Flash Player on Windows 95/NT, when its a legacy player and will no longer be upgraded and im on a Mac :)

I think it’s been done a few times. I was reading the SWFObject page yesterday. And the page for testing express install includes a link to a similar page.

A group at Carnegie Mellon has a page that shows a variety of stats on plugins and media support:

Hey Guy,

@Aral – I’m on to it. I’ll put it on my site and I will put a link for anyone to download the badge if they want to put it on their site. As soon as it is done I will let you all know.
Thanks :-)
