problem playing "Flash based CD

NO. that is not my intention. I think if someone wants to reply then he will will reply. He will not care whether other have replied or not.

nope. i have Flash 7 installed whihc is the latest version available for LIGNUX. Flash 9 or 10 is available only for WINDOWS & Mac OS X.

well, i found the solution to my problem. i am going to post it on comp.lang.c++ also as i faced this as an obstacle to learning C++ from Bruce Eckel's book. here is the solution:

i found that the links to the lectures in the "index" page in "Thinking in C" CD point to the HTML file of that particular chapter e.g. if i click on "Start Lecture" for chapter 1 then this link is pointing to "path-thinking-in-c-html-chap1-Lecture.html". then i went down into that chap1 folder abd saw that there was also a "Lecture.swf" file. i right-clicked it played it in Mozilla & it played.

so i only changed the links in "index" file to point to ".swf" files instead of "html" files e.g "path-thinking-in-c-html-chap1-Lecture.html" changed to "path-thinking-in-c-html-chap1-Lecture.swf". Original page works well in WINDOWS but only modified page works in LIGNUX.

i posted it so that others can benefit from it by saving their precious time.

thanks
