How to fix incompatible plugins used?

Browsers on mobile phones don’t support technologies such as:

  • Flash
  • Java Applets
  • Silverlight

A website should therefore not use these incompatible plugins.

These technologies are no longer in active use on the web nowadays. Old websites might still be using these technologies. In general it is recommended to switch to HTML5 and JavaScript instead of Flash, Java Applets and Silverlight.
