Hi James,

Adobe is no longer developing Flash for mobile web browsers. See here for the announcement:

I think the 'workaround'  is to use HTML5 (which, in mobile browsers, is probably better than Flash).


cheers,
doug

A sample can be seen at the site http://talk-lenape.org/search.php?q=corn&ls=english which gives words dealing with Corn.  The little red speaker icons should appear to the left of the Lenape words.

It seems that Apple has chosen not to support Adobe's Flash program which is used to display the icons, so to hear Lenape spoken you will need to use a real computer."
