Oddly enough, this doesn't work for me either in chrome v. 9.0.597.44 beta. What is the site exactly? Are you able to see if it works in windows?

Absorb LMS is designed for humans. The intuitive design pays attention to how people work. As a result, they move through their online training easily,

Hmmm, perhaps a little too quickly. As for being "intuitive", I'd just fire the guy that wrote the site.

It's just bad code. There's more errors than there are words on the page. Even the site they intended to show you has 64 errors and 50 warnings from W3C. I'd stay clear of people who use bad code to sell software, or anything else.

It's not flash. It's Microsoft Active Server Pages code (.asp).

Interesting, that when I disable the popup blocker the page goes through several empty screens including bookmarks. There is also a quick "flash" of text in the top right corner which clearly says "Checking for flash ...". Anyway, dot asp usually works, but in this case they obviously couldn't figure it out. Too clever by half, I'd say. Or ... could this be a malware attempt that just doesn't work in Linux? I mean, who else would want to open up my bookmarks file?

. . . Are you able to see if it works in windows?

I'd be careful!

Re: This website will not work...?

ok good it's not just me......

odd....

It's a safety training course for my work as I'm off work for a bit due to a crushed vertebrate, boss called and asked if I wouldn't mind doing this....

good to know that problem isn't on my end for flash install....

Guess I'll just tell 'im I'll do it when i swing into the shop for a visit!

Thanks for tryin' mates! and the speedy response appreciate it!

Re: This website will not work...?

According to Google there does not seem to be any "Globan Hazmat" web presence. I think the site you posted is just for fishing and your boss got on the wrong hook there. My thinking is that your (and his) interest is really in "Global Hazmat" which does look legitimate. Hopefully your boss is not running Windows.

Re: This website will not work...?

Actually, I just tried the real site. The one with an "l" instead of an "n" and it works just fine. So, it looks like I was on the right track there.

Let's hope he comes back and sees that. However it is also possible that he was happy that it didn't work so he could avoid doing the course at home.

Anyway, I'm still not sure what was going on. It seems to me that a URL that long would be copied with cut and paste rather than hand written. IOW, this was not a typo, but rather a deliberately added, or injected, URL. If one wanted to put malware on the site it would be harder to spot the malicious redirection if it was to a file which looked almost exactly the same as the legit one.
