Hi Paul, I work in education. All the major education platforms migrated, it's just these personal projects that have been left abandoned. I have a workaround that's outside of the scope of Firefox, but I thought it'd be worth sharing here.
Adobe offers the "Flash Player projector", a portable utility for playing Flash files. Because it's portable, even if the student isn't an administrator of their computer, they can download and run it. https://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/debug_downloads.html Then the teacher just needs to provide a link to the Flash file. I've used your example below. If you got IT involved, they could deploy Flash Player projector to all student computers and associate Flash files (.swf) to it so they open automatically. https://www.sciencegeek.net/VirtualLabs/heat_metal.swf ----------------------------------------- Jason Jackson Computer Network Engineer North Vancouver School District -----Original Message----- From: Enterprise <enterprise-boun...@mozilla.org> On Behalf Of Paul Kosinski via Enterprise Sent: December 30, 2020 11:41 AM To: enterprise@mozilla.org Subject: [EXTERNAL] Re: [Mozilla Enterprise] Fwd: Suggestions for hiding the horizontal bars at the top of the browser? If the Flash plugin itself stops working, this is going to be hard on some "remote learning" situations. There are some universities that have used Flash to provide virtual laboratory experiments (e.g., https://www.sciencegeek.net/VirtualLabs/SpecificHeatLab.html from Iowa State University). Unlike those with big budgets, such as YouTube, Netflix, TV networks and VMware, the people who made these simulations might not have the money to upgrade to HTML5.
