A simple extension to fix error "missing plugin" when browsing flash content for Google Chrome.

Missing Plug-in Fix Chrome Extension

'Missing Plug-in' Fix is a Chrome extension developed to resolve the 'missing plugin' error that Google Chrome users may face while viewing flash content. It works by injecting jQuery to add the necessary attributes to the <embed> tag, enabling Chrome to display the content. However, it does not rectify errors unrelated to the lack of 'type' attribute in the <embed> tag.

    What I can't understand is why wont you fix the browser. There are so many videos I can't see at all. Yet if I open FireFox or Safari, there is no problem. I wanna work with you guys but this is petty. Get it fixed please
