Hi,

I use the following Javascript which gets called via my "onLoad" =
handler..

// code for netscape only...
for (i=3D0; i<navigator.plugins.length;i++)
  {
      if (navigator.plugins[i].name.indexOf("RealPlayer(tm) G2 =
LiveConnect-Enabled") !=3D -1)
   {
         found_real =3D true;
   }
  }=20

If found_real is false, then they dont have Real Player G2.  It seems to =
work ok so far on Mac and Windows(win95,98,unix). I have not tested it =
on Unix but then G2 is not available on Unix anyways.=20

RealFolks, any idea G2 player will be released for Unix...? Are betas =
available that we can play with...?


In IE, you provide the location of the ActiveX control via the CODEBASE =
parameter, I believe. If the ClassID isnt found, IE will retrieve the =
object from the appropriate location. Any idea what the location of =
Codebase should be...? I havent seen a version of IE w/o the Real =
embedded control and so am stumped..

Njoy!

Mahesh
