Description Rafael Wysocki 2002-10-16 05:24:40 EDT

From Bugzilla Helper: 
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Konqueror/3; Linux) 
 
Description of problem: 
After the Macromedia Flash Netscape plugin has been registered with konqueror 
it refuses to load it anyway (Unable to load Netscape plugin for ...).  
Mozilla uses the _very_ _same_ plugin without any problems. 
 
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): kdebase-3.0.3-13 
 
 
How reproducible: 
Always 
 
Steps to Reproduce: 
1. Install JDK 1.4.0 from Sun on your system so that konqueror uses it by 
default 
2. Download the Flash plugin from macromedia.com and install it under e.g. 
/usr/local/netscape/plugins 
3. Register the plugin with konqueror 
4. Open any web page containing Flash (e.g. http://www.transdanubia.com) and 
you will see the error message 
	 
 
Actual Results:  konqueror says "Unable to load Netscape plugin for ..." 
 
Expected Results:  Flash plugin loaded and running
