sIFR 2 Fails With Flash Player 10

July 23rd, 2008 by Robbie

The title pretty much says it all. I spent about 10 aggravated minutes today troubleshooting this issue, until I remembered I had updated to the new Flash Player 10 beta last week. As reported:

sIFR 2 uses the same Flash detection that was originally used in its precursor, IFR, back in 2004. Unfortunately this detection script only expected single digit Flash versions, so it fails to detect Flash 10. This has been fixed in sIFR 2.0.6 2.0.7.

Those using sIFR 2 in past or current projects, take this opportunity to update your scripts. Obviously, this isn’t going to be a rampant issue, because sIFR usage is comparatively low. However, I wanted to at least save some of you out there the headache.
