Interesting, Chrome is directed to an HTML page, but Safari and Firefox show a full-page swf (which is piss slow to load, and clunky as hell).
It's not just the form though, it's the whole page. They have even replaced the browser scrollbar with a Flash-based scrollbar.
The page is basically a poster child for why people hate Flash.
- pavs 17y agoI have tried Chrome, FF, IE, Opera and safari on windows, none of them give me flash page.
- tvon 17y agoMhm, do you have Flash installed? I just tested in IE (in VMWare) and it gave me the flash page. edit: maybe a/b testing?
- pavs 17y agoYes I have flash installed. Also, on latest Chrome builds Flash is integrated into Chrome, so even if I didn't have it should have worked on Chrome. Its possible they are doing a/b testing, obviously some of you guys are getting flash.
- tvon 17y agoI was thinking the failure for Chrome was UA-sniffing related, but it could be a/b testing as well.
- CoryMathews 17y agoOpera 10.50 on Vista worked fine. You have a problem with your flash.
- tjogin 17y agoSo say we all.
- pak 17y agoMy god, I just realized that after looking at my scrollbar. Terrifying. I couldn't understand why two-finger scrolling wasn't working, and now I am disgusted.
- ghshephard 17y agoYeah - What on earth about that page suggests that it should be done in Flash, other than "it's possible to?". I love my flash games, but that page is a amazing fail - my credit-card auto completion didn't work, my two-finger scrolling failed to work - it's almost like they are trying to demonstrate how _not_ to create an order page.
