This is

as days pass by, by Stuart Langridge

. Here I write about many things. In the past I wrote about other things but the past is past. I write code for people to play with, I write about my life on Twitter, and I write here.

On I wrote No more Flash, on the subject of Web and Software.

I don't like Flash. And I don't like Mozilla telling me to download it. So I fixed it.

Sick of Mozilla popping up its "Default Plugin" box when you hit a page with Flash? Well, if you''re on Linux, then a solution is at hand.

nullFlashPlugin is, well, a null Flash plugin. It''s a plugin attached to Flash that doesn''t do anything, so it suppresses the warning without displaying the monstrous corruption to the purpose of the web that is Macromedia Flash. All hail Netscape making their plugin SDK available, I say.

Thanks alot for making this. Also is there any chance of you updating this plugin to work with seamonkey. I'm switching back to Mozilla now.

Andrew: it's unlikely that I'll fiddle it; I'd suggest using the FlashBlock extension instead, which is better :)
