Re: FLASH: ie4 + mac + flash detection

[Thorsten Schmiedel]

Sorry that I am little late with answering....


Try detecting Flash with Flash;

Put a single-frame flash with a 'getURL-command' to the flash part of the

site in your html-doc... the same doc contains a refresh-tag which redirects

to the html part after a couple of seconds.


Hope this helps to get things clearer...
