These Safari extensions are much like Firefox extensions. Earlier this year, Safari 5 introduced a new, officially supported extension API. That sounds pedantic, perhaps, but bear with me. The original ClickToFlash is a plugin, not an extension. Previously, I used and recommended the excellent ClickToFlash plugin for Safari. I’m really happy with this setup, so I thought I’d document it here.
Last week I mentioned that, following Steven Frank’s lead, I’d completely disabled Flash Player on my Mac. But I have a cheat, for web pages with Flash content with no non-Flash workaround.
