Really? I read that it would support the same as all the other decent browsers and you wouldn't need all the hacks you needed before. |

What about the stupid flash thing, where you have to activate it first? Anyone know if they've changed that?

If you embed the flash correctly, you wont need to activate it. |

| Was the activation thing not a safety feature that you had to use another hack for, even if you did embed it correctly? |

For IE you had to include extra javascript and stuff to make it disappear. All a bit silly in my mind.
