Hi Kevin,

You can use ObjectSwap to detect the flash version and place any kind of
html content inside the object tag. 
http://www.neo-archaic.net/blog/2006/04/25/objectswap.htm

You can't use it to jump to another page (you'd need php, asp, or
meta-redirect for that), but what you could do is place the entire content
of the html page inside the object tag. 

A change that was added after the blog has been written, is that for the
standard object/embed pair, you need to place the content inside html
comments, otherwise firefox will render both flash and html. The script will
automatically strip those comments away. For example:

<object classid=.....>
<param name="flashVersion" value="8"/>

<!--
<h1>My HTML Site </h1>
<p>html content</p>
<p>etc...</p>
-->

<embed .... /> 
</object>


Hope this helps you. 
Karina
