operating shockwave - Charles Anthony - 2008-01-15

After upgrading to Fedora 8 from 7, I am no longer able to play online poker games through any of the browsers: Firefox, Galeon and Konqueror. I think it is a problem with Flash but I am not sure how to solve it.

The website requires both the Java Runtime Environment and Shockwave, both of which seem to be correctly installed. When I enter the "about:plugins" this is what I get:

Code:
GCJ Web Browser Plugin 1.4

File name: gcjwebplugin.so

The GCJ Web Browser Plugin executes Java applets.

When I test my java by loading this page http://www.javatester.org/version.html

I get a positive result: Java Version 1.7.0 from Sun Microsystems

With Shockwave, I am confused because I am able to play YouTube videos diirectly from the site without a glitch but when I load this site to test http://www.explorelearning.com/View/vCorp/shockPop.html it, I get a failure and a message that tells me to download the plugin. The link leads me to the Adobe download page but it presents me with the following message:

Code:
