Hello everyone.
Could you Mac users do me a favor and check something for me? I've had some complaints that the quotes shown during the loading of this site just rotate indefinitely and never move on to the actual site. This problem apparently only occurs in IE on the Mac.
Here's the site:

Thanks in advance!

Thank you so much for that useful information. Enough people still use it for my client to be worried about it.

Thanks for checking.
Is see over 30 of you have looked. No problems?
- piperboytoy0
it works fine here

Thanks. Anyone else?

fine here:
Mac OSX 10.3.9 + explorer.Seriously though, Explorer aint supported by either company anymore and if the problematic users are on OS9 forget them. try to educate the client through the problem rather than screw yourself with it.

im using tiger, worked fine in ie, safari, and ff. nice clean site btw..
maybe these people are using an older flash player?

no sweat, hope you get things straightened out..

She's checking to see if she has the latest player. When checking the site she was bypassing the main page (where the player version is tested). She also sent out direct links to the flash page instead of the index page to her friends.
I think that's the problem.
How can I test inside of Flash to see what player is being used, just in case this happens again?

you could use an embedded mclip with the testing code the same as macromedia's nav bar does?
try these:

i think it's a IE problem on OS9 (it had something to do with the way the flash preloader is scripted)
and btw,

A MAC simulator

(a bit buggy)For flash detection:
In Publish Settings of Flash MX 2004, check the format "HTML (.html)".Select the tab HTML and and check to the second line...."Detect Flash Version" and select Settings, that is active now....
