Lena,

"Still using version 3, actually."
No problem with that at all. You do great work with it.

"...some advice on how to redirect a visitor without the swf plug-in, to
another "plain html"-page."

OK here goes another one of my code posts.
<!-- Code starts below
<html>
<head>
<title>Flash Plugin Tester</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<meta name="Author" content="RedStar">
<meta http-equiv="Expires" content="Mon, 21 Sep 1998 22:10:00 GMT">
<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="10;URL=noflash.html">
<script language="JavaScript">
var FlashIEOK= true ;
function noFlash(){
FlashIEOK = false ;
}
</script>
</head>
<body>
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
codebase="javascript:noFlash();" id="Flash" width="1" height="1">
<script language=javascript>
var FlashOK = false ;
if (navigator.mimeTypes &&
navigator.mimeTypes["application/x-shockwave-flash"] &&
navigator.mimeTypes["application/x-shockwave-flash"].enabledPlugin) {
FlashOK = true ;
}
if ( FlashOK ) {
location.href="flashok.html";
} else if (!(navigator.appName &&
navigator.appName.indexOf("Netscape")>=0 &&
navigator.appVersion.indexOf("2.")>=0)){
location.href="noflash.html";
}
</script>
</object>
<script language="JavaScript">
if (FlashIEOK) {
location.href="flashok.html";
}
</script>
<div align="center"><h1>Flash Plugin Tester</h1></div>
<div align="center"><a href="noflash.html">If you are not directed to
the entrance page click here</a></div>
</body>
</html>
--> Code ends above

The above does what you want and I've never seen it fail. It can give
some false negatives but should never give false positives.
Basic idea is quite simple but if you dan't understand anything or can't
get it to work give me a shout.
The code is free for any use. Adapt to your needs. Have fun.
