In Safari, where Flash content would be (for example the Flickr organizr), all I see is empty white space. It was working fine this morning, but somehow a little while ago it spontaneously appeared.

In Firefox it works fine.

I tried dumping cache, deleting prefs, etc, but still not working.

Do you have a link to the broken site?

Are you using the nightlies, perchance? I've had trouble with the nightlies and flash.

Nope, I'm using 1.3.1 on Panther. It's almost anything with flash content that's broken... I've tried dozens of flash sites and only 2-3 of them worked.

I also restarted, reinstalled Flash Player, and I'm about to try repairing permissions.

Do you have the latest flash player installed? I've heard that it isn't backwards compatible with older flash. I don't know how true this is, but it may be causing you the trouble. Again, any specific links? I'd like to see if I have the problem here.

Just repaired permissions, and it's working fine now.

Yeah, I was using the latest version of Flash, it just seems like it decided to die on me for an hour.

Thanks for your help Torifle!
