    Flash Player cross-scripting security fix in DW

    JayNewWeb Community Member
      The directions on how to implement the Flash Player cross-scripting security fix in Dreamweaver are unclear, as shown here.

      No problem replacing the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf file (also Streaming version, though I don't use it) in the designated Program Files folder.

      But what about fixing existing site files? Can't I just upload the new version of the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf file to my site folders that have it, overwriting the older version of the file that's on the server, and call it a day? (Naturally, I'll also replace any instances of it in my site folders, too.)

      The instructions say to download the site file, open it in Dreamweaver, preview it in the browser, preview the item (the "video" item I presume?), save the file, and re-upload it with dependent files -- which all seems a bit convoluted to me and didn't result in changing the file anyway.

      It seems just replacing the FLVPlayer_Progressive.swf file with the newer version everywhere it exists is a much cleaner approach, so that's what I did. Am I done? Can I go home now?

      Thanks.
