hi, sory for the noobish question but...

i have made a site with flash but it asks me to install the latest version of flash player when i load it in firefox.
the flash was made with flash catalist, now is there a way to save it so it runs on an earlier version of flash so people dont have to download the Latest one? or mabe use anouther program to convert the .swf to an earlier version?

thanks in advance, i shall be sitting here waiting your input lol

Perhaps no-one knows, have you tried contacting Adobe technical support? they're bound to know.

the interesting thing is that if i put the flash file in a higher z-index to the background using css it asks for a flash player update, but if i just do a link to the swf file it plays. could this be down to bad code?
