Subject: FLASH: Plug-in detection and redirect help!!!
From: L Taylor
Date: Fri, 24 Sep 1999 16:25:06 +0100

A couple of questions:

1. Does anyone know how to detect for Flash 3 or later. I have the version
for 3(see below), but apparently it doesn't detect 4 too.
2. For some reason the plug-in detect (see below) doesn't seem to be
working on IE 3.0 on the mac. I just get a blank page. I haven't tested 3.0
browsers on PC yet. Is this because IE3.0 doesn't support javascript and I
am using javascript generated by good old Dreamweaver 1.2?
The test page is at: http://www.inn-entertainment.com/flash-test.html
It should go to index_fl.html if you do have Flash 3 and index_st.html if
you don't have Flash 3.
3. Does anyone know how to save Flash 4 as Flash 2 - I have tried exporting
it, but for some reason the application crashes. Any ideas??
4. Finally, is anyone getting a blank red screen instead of a 'lovely'
little flash movie?

Thanks in advance,
Lesley.
