[SOLVED] Flash not working in Luakit

I have the latest flash plugin (v11) but can't get flash to work in luakit on my laptop. When I go to YouTube and try to watch a video I get:

You need to upgrade your Adobe Flash Player to watch this video.

Firefox has no problem but I can't be switching browsers every time I want to watch something on YouTube. Flash plays just fine in luakit on my desktop but I can't remember what I did to get it working...

In my 'globals.lua':

["www.youtube.com"] = {
    ["enable-scripts"]          = true,
    ["enable-plugins"]          = true,
}

Re: [SOLVED] Flash not working in Luakit

I had a feeling there was some pretty obvious difference between the config files on my desktop and my laptop. Somehow I had a 'www' (not in the default config) in fornt of 'youtube.com', after removing it everything works.

The YouTube rule should look like:

["youtube.com"] = {
    ["enable-scripts"]          = true,
    ["enable-plugins"]          = true,
}
