how do websites get that "enable flash player" to appear on their pages?


Question

I noticed some pages that are flash based have this thing (as shown in my screenshot).

 

How do I get the same thing to appear on my flash site?  https://imgur.com/a/nhpjC39

 

My page shows absolutely nothing, so I'm wondering if during that whole time I wasn't keeping up with flash (since it's supposed to be dead) that a solution was proposed to let people keep using it and allow them to have this pop-up appear on their page that lets them enable it.  Is there a new code to use?

Add flash to your site and then use a browser that supports it. That message only shows on browsers that support flash.

Ohhh ok I fixed it... OK I just googled current code and I found this:

 

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0" WIDTH="775" HEIGHT="580" id="index.swf" ALIGN="">
<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="index.swf"> <PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high> <PARAM NAME=bgcolor VALUE=#333399> <EMBED src="index.swf" quality=high bgcolor=#333399 WIDTH="775" HEIGHT="580" NAME="index.swf" ALIGN="" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"></EMBED> </OBJECT>

 

I was using the following (dreamweaver was making me do this, perhaps it's an old version).

 

<script type="text/javascript">
   var so = new SWFObject("index.swf", "HugClub", "775", "580", "8", "#FFF4FF");
   so.write("flashcontent");
</script>

 

Now that I think back, I recall the whole issue with "swf object" and this type of code was used back then.  I guess everything's just all baked in now so I can use the code above now.  Yeah... that's it... I remember my SWFs were coming up as red flags on my page that one time.  It actually still works when I use it in IE11 lol... but OK, glad this new code works.  Thanks!!!


EDIT:  Yup... so much clean up took place on my old code.  I'm soooo glad it's simplified and they're at least now allowing people the option to enable and view.  I feel so happy!  I'm gonna get right to work and reopen my little corner/store.

    • Lol I had one of these turn faulty in Jan, guess it wasn't just bad luck lol
    • I'm team Rossmann all the way. I have the exact same NVME, altough not in an array like him.
    • It had gone weeks ago. Although thinking about it I'm on the beta.
    • They thought value of their goods would forever only drop like it used to and didn't account for sudden increase in price because of all the Ai hype. Tough luck Samsung, don't try to weasel this one out. Also American customer protection laws are a**. In Europe, you need to be compensated for a functioning product of same or better characteristics (not same price point as when it was originally bought!) if it can't be repaired and when you receive a replacement product your warranty starts from scratch because you received a different item than you previously had and old warranty thus cannot apply to it anymore. If your actual item was successfully repaired, warranty gets extended for the period the item was in service. If item is repaired to a significant extent, warranty also starts over from scratch because major part of it was replaced. Americans need to fight to get this kind of consumer protections because they are constantly getting screwed over.
    • Microsoft releases new Windows 11 Media Creation Tool with the latest updates by Taras Buria Patch Tuesday updates arrive every month, bringing users new features and security updates. To make sure customers have access to the most recent images, Microsoft also releases updates to the Media Creation Tool app, its official utility for Windows 11 installation. Today, the company pushed new ISOs to Media Creation Tool, allowing you to create images with the June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates. With the latest update, the Media Creation Tool now downloads KB5094126. It is Windows 11 version 25H2, build 26200.8655, which is also available via Windows Update. Note that the app itself remains on the previous version, which you can check in Properties > Details. The only change is that it now downloads a more recent Windows 11 build, so the only way to check is to download an ISO. The June 2026 Patch Tuesday update is a special release for Windows 11, as it brings a new performance profile to make the operating system more responsive and snappier when rendering various user interface surfaces, including the Start menu, quick settings, and more. It does so by spiking processor speeds for a brief moment, resulting in higher loads for a second or two. The so-called “Low latency profile” is rolling out gradually, but you can force-enable it with the ViVeTool app. Other changes include webcam improvements, Task Manager updates, shared audio support, and more. You can download the Media Creation Tool app from the official Microsoft website using this link. Besides MCT, Microsoft lets you download Windows 11 ISO as a file directly from the official Windows 11 website. However, you will need a third-party app to write it to your USB drive. Check out this guide if you want to know how to do that.
