Supported Browsers for Captivate 4

Can someone please list the supported browsers for version 4 of Captivate?  I've scoured the web site and am coming up dry.  They are really pushing version 5 now.  I even called support, who later transferred me to sales, and neither could tell me what browsers are supported for version 4 - they only wanted to sell me a newer version.

I work for a non-profit children's hospital.  We are finally trying to upgrade from IE6 to a newer browser, and I just need to make sure our version 4 files will be compatible.  Thanks in advance!

    Hi there

    I stand to be corrected on this, but...

    I don't believe it's the browser that's the concern here. The browser uses either the Flash ActiveX control (IE) or the Flash Add In (Netscape, Mozilla Gorilla and others). So it's the Flash component that matters.

    I do suppose there could be some concern with 64 bit systems, but even though I'm using a 64 bit system I'm able to see Captivate movies just fine in my browsers (IE and Firefox)

    Cheers... Rick

    Thanks, Rick.  I expected that to be the case, but I needed to do my due-diligence.  I believe our IT folks do allow for the latest version of the flash player to be downloaded/updated on all our machines, so I don't foresee an issue there.
