My IPad does'nt recognize arcade games is this a flash problem .
One of the many quirks about the iPad is its inability to play Flash videos. In a white paper on the subject, Apple co-founder Steve Jobs wrote that Flash wasn't supported because it lacked full support for touch screens, it created security and performance issues, it ate into battery life and it created an extra layer between the developer and the operating system. And after Adobe dumped Flash for Mobile, it's safe to say we won't ever see Flash support on the iPad.
Luckily, there are a few alternative web browsers for the iPad that support Flash.
Photon Browser (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/photon-flash-video-player/id430200224?mt=8)<q style="font-family: inherit; font-style: italic; font-weight: inherit; margin: 0px 0px 0.5em; padding: 0px; text-decoration: inherit; quotes: ''; display: block; position: relative; max-width: 100%;">http://0.tqn.com/d/ipad/1/6/P/5/-/-/photon.png (http://0.tqn.com/d/ipad/1/0/P/5/-/-/photon.png)</q>
The Photon Browser is easily the best solution for playing Flash videos and games on the iPad. Photon is a full-fledged browser with all of the added features one would expect in a web browser, including tabbed web pages, full screen browsing, private browsing, anonymous browsing, bookmarks and the ability to print.
The Photon Browser also optimizes certain features of Flash, such as the ability to split the screen for Flash video playback and an easy rotation lock for playing Flash games.

That worked Bob but i cannot access the Gallery to view photos. This has not been a problem before using IPAD though i understand the problem of the arcade.

It seem sad that the flash gets the better of the RWF forum. Only a pun.

Glyn, you need to clear your history, cookies and data from Safari.
In the iPad
Go to Settings
Safari
On the right hand side of the screen, near the bottom
Clear History
Clear Cookies and Data

Peter, I can confirm that the IPad Photon Browser works with the Forum and Arcade; however, it will cost you £2.99 to download from the App store

Working now Bob, i do clear the history daily but obviously it must have been packed when i tried. Weird how i could enter the site through the Arcade address rather than the main address. The new one you gave me worked fine. Thanks for that Bob.
I'm having problems playing some games like. Word Rage, Bug Connect and some others. Get onto them ok but when I click on them to play, Nothing happens. Anyone got any idea how to sort this out please? Braz
