[SWFObject] expressinstall firefox

["Geiger Balázs"]

yes, but i dont looking for hungarian localization, it is not a solution for me, as i see for most of the users it is a too big thing to "search" and "close" a firefox window :) they will not do it,, they will close the entire site, and go away, to an another site :)

the only solution were an update, that updates flash after user selects YES, automatically,,,  IE does it,, only in firefox must i close the browser window manually,,, (because there is no way to close firefox window from script) 

BUT as i see, it is not the only solution to CLOSE the browser window,,, update works automatically in firefox if i dont close the window, only REDIRECT it to a page without flash,, then it can update it

but expressinstall works not as expected after a redirect, as i wrote in my last letter
