Ok, this is where I got the info about the toyota site: http://www.flashinsider.com/2005/08/24/flash-player-8-required-for-toyota-hybrid-city/It looks like the first part of the site will work in 7 or 8, but if you go to this section: http://toyota.jp/bb/index.html?intobbsp.toyotajp.toptext
and push the enter button, you have to have flash 8 to continue
I verified this with two different pluginreg.dat files, so the spoof does work.
Shyguy, as you point out, the site works up to the enter button here. However, after editing PLUGINREG.DAT from Shockwave Flash 7.0 r60 to Shockwave Flash 8.0 r22 (btw, I only found one location in PLUGINREG.DAT with the version info), I still can not go beyond the enter button.
About:plugins does now show the version as Shockwave Flash 8.0 r22, but there is no change in terms of version 8 usability here.
SUCCESS!!! I am testing this with Firefox 1.5, which blocks getting past the enter button because it detects it as a popup. This is part of Firefox's newer more aggressive approach to popups. When you click on the enter button, Firefox places a popup icon on the status bar. When you click on the icon, you have the choice to allow the popup, or continue blocking it. When I allowed the popup, Flash coninued to the next screen for the player. Sooooo, success.
