WDL Suddenly not working in Google Chrome

This has happened before.

WDL not working in Google Chrome (no files etc have changed) for my weather site which is http://weather.otronics.co.uk/

Error is: ‘You need to install v8, or greater, of Flash Player from Adobe and have javascript enabled to view Weather Display Live.’

Same error on three different workstations.

Other browsers are fine.

Any one else having issues?

This occurs when you are using swfobject.js to load any FLASH script, such as WD-live scripts or Yowindow. Same problem with the latest release of Edge.

Using direct links to the same FLASH scripts works and the visitor can accept the loading of FLASH.

S

does the swfobject.js file exist on your web site?

WDL still works for me in Chrome
http://www.weather-display.com/windy/gb/flash/
but I had to click to enable it

this is how I have mine loading, which works still in Chrome

It isnt working on android tablet in Chrome browser…


You are right
Flash is getting harder to support

The steel gauges works

One day I might find time to make a gui setup for those

Yes, the steel gauges are working nice :smiley:

That would be great!

Hello,

See https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/3123708?hl=en

You must allow the site in Chrome too get flash working.

It’s working fine on my site for WDL and others sites with flash en WDL

Best regards,

That wound be great, it wound make installing/setting so much easier.

by the time I answer all the forum questions and emails and it does not leave much spare time …but hopefully…

I don’t know how you find the time do it all anyway !!. :smiley: :smiley: :smiley:

many thanks for all of the work that do for us.

PS keep up the good, we would be lost without you.

You have to use a browser that allows flash—Chrome does not.

Puffin does-going through their servers.

I have done some investigating and found out it was due to domain forwarding and masking.

My weather.otronics.co.uk address forwards to another host and masks the actual URLs.

Turning this off has fixed the problem.

My school chrome browser updated today. I no longer have access to WDL live. I was hoping to delay this until Xmas break.

So- I will need massive help getting to html 5.

Current main page http://weather.rms.rdale.org/
Page with steel graphs. http://weather.rms.rdale.org/weather3.php Can’t get graphs to work-tried but no luck.

I like the circles but prefer up/down gauges.
I am way behind the curve in programming and have survived with a little bit of knowledge. Just very frustrated.

can you view my WDL page?
