Take a look at Adobe's player detection:
http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/download/detection_kit/
Have you looked at using the Express Install option, seperately from
swfobject?:
SRC: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/swfobject_print.html
#include "expressinstall.as"
// initialize the ExpressInstall object
var ExpressInstall = new ExpressInstall();
// if the user needs to upgrade, show the 'start upgrade' button
if (ExpressInstall.needsUpdate) {
// this is optional, you could also automatically start the
// upgrade by calling ExpressInstall.init() here instead of the
following lines
// attach the custom upgrade message and center it
var upgradeMsg = attachMovie("upgradeMsg_src", "upgradeMsg", 1);
upgradeMsg._x = Stage.width / 2;
upgradeMsg._y = Stage.height / 2;
// attach the button actions that will start the ExpresInstall updater
upgradeMsg.upgradeBtn.onRelease = function() {
// the ExpressInstall.init() method is what kicks off the actual update
ExpressInstall.init();
}
// if expressinstall is invoked, stop the timeline.
stop();

Hi There,
I'm using a document write tag in js to avoid the click to activate
crap. I'm developing for flash 9 content. Do you know if there's a way
to detect and redirect if flash 9 is not being used? I tried using
swfobject, which worked, however it would invalidate our php session in
IE.
I can't use the build in flex/flash 9 detection because these are single
widgets within an html page, not full browser swf's are something. Here
is what my code looks like. I appreciate the help as javascript is not
my strong suit.
Here's what I am working with:
function homepageload2()
{
document.write('<object
classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000"
codebase="
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=8,0,0,0
"
width="800" height="250" id="landing" align="middle">\n');
document.write('<param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain"
/>\n');
document.write('<param name="movie" value="/_p/viewer/some.swf"
/><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="bgcolor"
value="#ffffff" />\n');
document.write('<embed src="/_p/viewer/some.swf" quality="high"
bgcolor="#ffffff" width="800" height="250" name="homepage"
align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer"; />\n');
document.write('</object>\n');
}
Thanks,
Patrick
