This will work for you....
on exitFrame
movies=quickTimeVersion()
if movies<4 then
go to "Install" -- have a install frame
else
go to "Main" -- go to whereever you want if QT4.0 or greater is
installed.
end
on the install frame put this on an install button
This script has the installers for QT in a folder "Movies" and the
sub folders are "QuickTime Install Mac" and "QT_4_WIN" etc.
Hope this helps..
Tim
-- QuickTime installer
global gPaths
on mouseUp me
if the platform contains "Macintosh" then
open the moviePath&"Movies"&gPaths&"QuickTime Install
Mac"&gPaths&"QuickTime Installer"
halt
else
open the
moviePath&"Movies"&gPaths&"QT_4_WIN"&gPaths&"QuickTimeInstaller.exe"
halt
end if
end
