wildteen88 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 You can check whether the user has flash8 installed within flash itself. Have a look at this from [a href=\"http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_14294\" target=\"_blank\"]Adobe[/a] for play detection.

wildteen88 Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 I belive you can do this with javascript. You cant do it with PHP as it runs on the server.[a href=\"http://www.quirksmode.org/js/flash.html\" target=\"_blank\"]click here[/a] for a turorial on how to do so with javascript.
