FLASH: Plug-in detection - resolved yet? Losing sanity, quickly!

[L Taylor]

Hey all,


There's been quite a lot of discussion about this. Has anyone found the 

ultimate cross-browser/platform answer yet?


I am still having problems with the plug-in detection. Although, I thought 

that I had fixed the problem someone is still having the problem of seeing 

the a red screen, nothing else. All I want to do is:

1. Detect the Flash 3.0 plug-in and redirect to a flash page

2. Not detect the plug-in and go to a static page

3. Automatically refresh to the static page if someone has a browser who 

can't read the javascript.


The website is: http://www.inn-entertainment.com


Please also check out an alternative plug-in check at: 

http://www.inn-entertainment.com/detect3.html

I found it at moock.org - thanks! Anyway, this version seems to do 

something odd in Netscape 4 on PC. It loads the movie then redirects to the 

static page anyway.

If someone has gone through this before and has an answer *please* let me 

know. I used to be on the borderline of sanity, but this has pushed me over 

the other side.


Many thanks in advance,

Lesley.
