Downloading Flash 4

Fortunately, the installation process for Flash 4 is very harmless and fast. Using the Publish Setting called "Flash Only (default)", the user's browser will automatically act as mentioned below:

Internet Explorer 3 or above downloads automatically, and asks permission before installing. Usually, you have to restart the browser.

Netscape 4 or above downloads automatically, and displays a popup window that is slighly different from that of Internet Explorer, but basically does the same. Netscape always needs to be restarted.

Other browsers, like Netscape 3, display an empty screen, and maybe a plugin icon in the middle. If you click this icon, you will automatically go to the Macromedia Shockwave Download Center, which is very user friendly.

The last resort is creating a "Get Shockwave" button, linking directly to the download center. This button should link to

http://www.macromedia.com/
[cc] shockwave/download/index.cgi?
[cc] P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash

...and look like this:

Get Shockwave Button Get Shockwave Button Get Shockwave Button

Choose the one you like. They are all free.

Good luck!
