viewing flv / swf on a mac?

[catfish]

I've created a few flash headers for some websites but have just recently made one for a client that has a MAC. Is there a way to build it for a MAC?

Have you tried it and verified it didn't work? i thought flash worked on MACS and Macbooks just not ipads ipods and iphones. I may be wrong though

Correct Benjamin, Flash works on computers or laptops but not automatically on iPads or iPhones, there are however apps that you can install.

Thanks Virtual, I wasn't completely sure. Catfish please find out what the target audience will be using. Computers vs phones and ipads. Then decide if you need to find another solution.

Hello and thanks for replying. The client saw the flash working on my PC but after viewing it on her own MAC told me it doesn't work. then I checked it on my iPhone and it doesn't work. So, what is the 'other solution'? Is there a fix for the MAC?

She will have to download the latest Flash player for her computer. As for the iPhones and iPads, each individual would have to install on app just to view the Flash content. You should maybe look into Jquery.
