FLASH PLUGIN

This web based activity contains animations that require a 'Flash' plugin for your internet browser. If, on first attempt to play one of these sequences, you get an error message, you should download the latest Flash plugin.

BROWSER ISSUES

It is recommended that you use Internet Explorer as this activity has been designed for this browser. Although it also works well in Firefox and Safari, there are minor differences, especially with respect to keyboard access. If you require keyboard access for the animations you will need to click on the item to get the browser to focus on it first. After that the tab key allows you to navigate the controls. If you are using a Mac then Safari is the best browser to use.
