After little more investigation I found that the issue is with the mimetype not with the flash plugin. When the NP flash plugini.e., npswf.dll is installed, webkit is loading the dll and playing the flash with if the mimetype is changed to "application/x-shockwave-flash". This is valid mime-type for *.swf content.
But in the testcase attached for the bugid: 21649, mimetype is "application/octet-stream". And firefox is able to play even if the mimetype is "application/octet-stream". So I wanted to know if this is a valid bug on webkit or its a content issue(invalid HTML content). Can some please suggest us if we can raise a bug on webkit?
It sounds worth filing a bug and mentioning the difference from Firefox. It would also be good to test other browsers. -Adam
