Hello,
Please excuse me if this message has appeared twice but my Internet link was broken and I do not know if the previous message got sent.
I am using Dreamweaver 4.0.
I was horrified to learn from a visitor to my website that Flash object were not showing, and would not show, unless they allowed the download of 'Flash' software. For the time being I do not want visitors to my site to have to allow the download of Flash software before they can view my site.
I am only using Flash objects as Flash buttons simply to navigate between pages, that is, change from one page to another. Please can anyone tell me how I can alter my website design to allow visitors to navigate from page to page without using Flash objects.
Thank you for any help that you can give me.
Webtime.

This has always been the case.

Then you must not use Flash on your site for anything other than cosmetic
'dressing'.

This is a major mistake. In addition to eliminating those who do not have
the Flash plugin, you have also eliminated the search engine spiders, which
will not be able to read your page-to-page links.

Remove the Flash and rebuild your navigation using ordinary HTML devices.
