[SWFObject] An issue wtih Express Install and Mozilla

[Michael Williams]

I just tried it upgrading from Flash Player 7r19 -> 9r16 in Firefox
1.5.0.4 on Windows XP SP2. It worked correctly. After clicking "retry"
in the installer the browser was relaunched to your site and I heard
your voice introducing me to the site.

Do you have some exact steps to reproduce this?

	I have been using flashobject for a few months now, and it's
been great... especially with ExpressInstall... but I'm having an issue
with Mozilla and EI.  When I go to my own site using Mozilla
(http://www.laurelwoodpro.com) I get the ExpressInstall message.  I
click "Start Upgrade", Adobe tells me I need version 9.  I click "Yes"
and then get a "Files in Use" message, saying "Some files that need to
be updated are currently in use.  The following applications are using
files that need to be updated by this setup.  Close these applications,
yada yada yada."

	The application that it says needs to be closed is Firefox!
Okay.  So when I close Firefox, the whole thing goes away.  Hmmm.
Somehow I don't think this is what Express Install is supposed to do.
What's the fix?  Currently, I'm thinking anyone using Firefox is locked
out of my site.  Not a good thing.

	 

	Thanks,

	Dave Sansom
