This website wants to run the following add-on: Adobe Flash Player from ...
why would i be getting this if i am not running any flash on my page?? thanks
There must be some toolbar or add-on trying to access it. Or most of the .cab or .dll uses the ActiveX. May be the reason but not sure.
I had the same problem, and flash was triggered by the Google Analytics tracking code that was added to the page. However this doesn't happen on all IE8 setups. My configuration was Windows XP SP3, IE 8.0.6001.18702.
A quick workaround is disabling the flash tracking by adding _gaq.push(['_setDetectFlash', false]); just before _gaq.push(['_trackPageview']);

I have many old websites with partial flash contents which I init with swfobjects library. The problem is Chrome isn't even asking to allow flash, the pages runs as they don't have any flash objects. I'm using latest Chrome Canary but same problem in latest Chrome too.
Example site which has a big flash banner and it is the only meaningful content: sahinkomur.com.tr
Found a solution on GitHub: https://github.com/swfobject/swfobject/issues/57
if(window.chrome)
swfobject.ua.pv = [100, 0, 0];
swfobject.embedSWF(...);

We have a Chrome extension that can be used to open a page into our website. From there the user then continues onto the next page which has a custom NPAPI plug-in embedded in it. This has always worked fine. However, since the version 32 update the plug-in loads and runs (it's a video conferencing plug-in and is clearly running as the other side can see video) however it doesn't show up on the page. Examining the DOM everything looks fine. Grabbing the border and re-sizing the browser will cause the plug-in to suddenly render correctly. I've tried all manner of javascript/css tricks to try and mimic this behavior as a workaround but nothing works. Tabs opened manually (not using chrome.tabs.create) work fine.
This worked up till 32.
Any ideas around this?
Chrome 32 is phasing out NPAPI, read the announcement here.
There is a deprecation guide that you can read here.
It seems like Google wants you to use it's Native Client tech to run native compiled code on user's machines. It is cool stuff...but so far I've found it difficult/more limiting to work with when compared to NPAPI (but there are obvious upsides, security for instance).
You could also build a native app and use native message passing to communicate from extension -> app. Once downside to this is that there is currently no way to bundle a native app into an extension install, so the user will need to download and install your app separately.
Today google chrome updated to last version, before that update the website was working without any problem. It's working on firefox and internet explorer without any problem though.
What's wrong with google chrome ?

This issue may be caused by the dreaded 'Pepper' Flash Player, which has also been breaking Flash content for me in Chrome.
I don't know what the solution is for your broader audience of Chrome visitors, but to fix the problem locally:
In a new tab, go to the URL: chrome://plugins/
Find the entry for 'Flash' and expand [+] Details if not already expanded
Look for the entry where the location of the plugin ends: ...PepperFlash\pepflashplayer.dll and click 'Disable'
You will hopefully have at least one other instance of Flash Player installed (if not, try installing a debug player from Adobe's website), and enable one of these.
I should mention, the Pepper Flash Player seems to regularly re-enable itself, possibly whenever Chome auto-updates itself, and I find myself having to repeat this process every couple of days.
I just got my MacBook and am trying out the Flash BUilder on said platform. I've installed Firefox and Google Chrome on my MacBook but I can't seem to find a way to set which browser would launch my Flex apps whenever I hit the Run button inside Flash Builder. As far as I know, I can locate the Browser property on the Project Properties on my Windows copy of Flash Builder but I couldn't over here at my Mac. Any thoughts?
You can change the browser associated with Flash Builder in the Flash Builder preferences window. It's under General -> Web Browser. This sets the default web browser for all items launched from FB I believe. I don't know of a method for doing this on a per-project basis, but this should solve your immediate problem. This is on FB 4.5, by the way, but I believe it's the same for previous versions as well.
I've asked myself if one can embed the google chrome browser engine in an own application. I'm using Delphi 2009. There's an IE ActiveX wrapper component delivered with the IDE. Also, there's a Firefox ActiveX component out there, but it's based on very old code.
I'd like to embed the chrome engine. Is there a way to do this?
Thanks in advance,
David
Google Chrome is basically WebKit layout engine + nice UI. And WebKit can be embedded.
There's also chromium embedded framework (CEF).
And finally, check out Awesomium.
Update 2:
A very good fit for this would be the new Electron Shell
Update:
As a commenter points out under this answer, this is no longer supported. For good reasons I guess.
Recently Google released the Chrome Frame active X for MS IE
see if that helps

I've just release a pre-alpha version of CefSharp my .Net bindings for the Chromium Embedded Framework.
Check out source or grab bins and give me your thoughts: https://github.com/chillitom/CefSharp
