Check for Flash

[kaos]

Hi

My website requires Flash Player. I'm looking or a simple script that will detect if you have it installed or not. If they have it, I want the script to take no action; if they don't, I want it to redirect them to a different page.

i don't have exactly the function u need but,
this code tell u that u must get the latest flash player

<!-- include flowplayer JavaScript file -->
<script src="http://static.flowplayer.org/js/flowplayer-3.1.2.min.js"></script>


<!-- setup player container -->
<div id="player" style="width:425px;height:300px"></div>

<div id="info" class="box info">
	You have Flash version 9.115 or above. Enjoy high quality video!
</div>

<!-- flowplayer configuration -->
<script>


// Flowplayer installation with Flashembed parameters
flowplayer("player", {

	// our Flash component
	src: "/swf/flowplayer-3.1.2.swf",

	// we need at least this version
	version: [9, 115],

	// older versions will see a custom message
	onFail: function()  {
		document.getElementById("info").innerHTML =
			"You need the latest Flash version to view MP4 movies. " +
			"Your version is " + this.getVersion()
		;
	}

	// here is our third argument which is the Flowplayer configuration
}, {
	clip: "http://blip.tv/file/get/KimAronson-TwentySeconds6421.m4v"
});
</script>

may be you can customize it into the function that you need.
good luck...

Thanks for the help, but that's not quite what i'm looking for... I'm not using the 'Flowplayer' and would rather not link of of other people's (copyrighted) JavaScript. I just need a script that will allow me to detect if a visitor has Flash Player and, if not, send them to a different page. Understand?
