RE: FLASH: flash5 scriptless plugin detection

[Jason Bouwmeester]

hide.mouse would work or you could have it call a function that would tell

it to go to a certain frame. I would tend to go by the function one...

Hi Michael,


I'm not sure of anything anybody else has done, but I'm sure we can figure

it out.  For Flash 4 detection, we created a variable in our sniffer movie

to forward the user onto our Flash content page (see Colin Moock's website

for details: http://www.moock.org/webdesign/flash/).  Since only Flash 4

could work with variables, any previous version of Flash would take us to

our alternate content.


With Flash 5 it ought to be very similar.  Put in some Flash5-specific

command (I haven't picked up F5 yet but I'm sure there's something simple)

to forward your users onto your main Flash page.  All previous versions of

Flash will be unable to read it, therefore, your detectable users will, by

definition, have the F5 player.


Hope this helps!


Hal
