Okay. Now it makes sense. Change this:
if ( MM_FlashCanPlay ) {
window.location.replace("
http://www.leoandsabrina.com/main.html");
} else{
window.location.replace("
http://www.leoandsabrina.com/poop.html");
To this:
if ( !MM_FlashCanPlay ) {
window.location.replace("
http://www.leoandsabrina.com/ohcrapyoudonthaveflash.html");

.Exe with Flash detection

Hey fellow Flash users,
i'm wondering if anyone could tell me how to publish a EXE
file in Flash that has an incorporated Flash Detection script.
For the moment i'm using a AS based detection for my sfw
file(downloaded from and Adobe site). Problem being that ithe final
product has to be a selfrunning demo, wich means an exe file
executing the swf file in a player.(atleast in my case).
I know it's possible to publish a SWF to an EXE, but by doing
so, the different files, AS and directories the Action scripts need
are not incorporated in the EXE file.
Is there a way to compact all the different AS files,
directories and swf files to one EXE file ?
any help will be appriciated.
greets

What you have said here doesn't make any sense to me. Flash
Detection script usually means a way to detect what Flash player
the user has installed and either adjust itself or recommend that
the user update their player.
By publishing an EXE you are bundling the player into the
file and even if the end user has a different version installed it
won't matter. The EXE will use the version that is included inside
the EXE so no detection is necessary.
Now if your problem is that the external assets aren't
included in the EXE, then no detection script is going to help.
There are two ways to address this. Just include the external
assets on a CD or something. Remember that all load paths will be
relative to the EXE. It is very easy to construct a self-running
demo of this sort. Just keep everything nicely organized.
There are also third party tools which allow for packaging
everything together into one file. I haven't used them so I don't
know how well any of them work.

Browser detection script

Hello,
I'm wondering how playback in Flash or on older browsers work. Does the published content run a browser detection script?
Thank you.

Actually this seems to work better:
if (accept.indexOf("vnd.wap.wml") >= 0) {
// I have a WAP browser...
}I thought Opera (being WML compatible) would load the WML content, but thankfully it does not broadcast it in the Accept header.
Thanks.

Flash detection

I've got a problem with the javascript which should detect
the flash plugin version, if it is deactivated or if there is a
flash plugin installed. I deactivated Flash in my browser. Now I
want my page to tell me that I have to activate the flash plugin.
If I try it locally on my pc everything works fine. If I try to
upload it on our server it don't work. and my page shows a broken
image and seem to find a flash version. Our server is a linux
mashine. Does anybody know something about this problem? Might be a
problem to receive the data via HTTP?

HI! below is part of the swfobject code that is located in
the HTML page.
The first part in between the divs is displayed if the user
does not have
Flash plugin installed.
The next part has the movie to be played with the version
that is needed for
it to be played. in this case its version 8.0.22
This also works with the so.setAttribute("redirectUrl", IF
Flash is
detected but is lower than 8.0.22 then goto ExpressInstall
BUT IF the users
version is less than is needed for ExpressInstall to work
THEN "redirectUrl"
is used to redirect the user to another html page.
In that case it would be
"Errors_warnings/flash_not_detected.asp".
If you go back to geoff page and scroll down a bit you will
find that he
does has some examples of flash detect, flash verison, flash
expressInstall
( which will upgrade the users flash plugin automaticly). and
has a full
tutorial.
Usually people do reply as I am now, you must of hit slow
week.

Full Browser Flash in firefox help

Hello.
first I'd like to say beforehand that i'm just an average
timeline flash designer. not really deep into programming. and
doesn't know any programming languages except PHP on an advanced
level nothing more nothing less. I mean, I only use javascript via
copy paste from a site that gives codes. so here's my question:
I have made a full browser flash site, or so it was called
(is that official? FBF?) my problem is, it doesn't work in firefox,
i tried googling, it resulted to change the doctype to an older
one, I did that, no progresss, delete the doctype enrtirely, did it
too, still no progress. And, found some site that let's you insert
css:
<style type="text/css">
HTML, BODY {height: 100%; width: 100%}
</style>
did it too but still no flaah in firefox. and oh, I have the
plug-ins installed just fine. here's my html code:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0
Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
lines 1, 2, amd 3,
and then to the flash part.:
<body>
<table width="100%" height="100%" border="0"
cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" bgcolor="#FFFFFF">
<tr>

</object><script type="text/javascript"
src="ieupdate.js"></script></td>
</tr>
</table>
</body>
It works ok in IE and btw, I only know how to make a full
browser flash by changing the size in the code from width="x" to
width="100%" and height="x" to height="100%" basically, I just set
any dimension i see in 100%. but of course I already created the
flash movie size that extends to 1280 x 1024.
can you help me please? I hope I enough info so you may
tackle wherever I've gone wrong. Thanks!

Any chance your video card might have "video" related settings that might be interfering? While I'm not suggesting that you switch browsers, trying to reproduce this on another browser will give us a datapoint to see if this is firefox specific. I would recommend giving both IE or Chrome a try to see if it still occurs.

Why am i getting Adobe Flash Player script crashes?

ello,
I've noticed in the last week or two my scripts for Adobe Flash Player completely freezing up. After a full five minutes of freezing, I get a general warning that:
"A script in this movie is causing Adobe Flash Player to run slowly. If it continues to run, your computer may become unresponsive. Do you want to abort the script?"
"become" unresponsive? lol Anyway, even after I click "yet", it still takes a least another five minutes before it unfreezes. Now, I used to problems with Jave scripts, but those wouldn't take tens-of-minutes to abort. I've literally had Adobe Flash Player scripts freezes for 15 minutes at a time leaving my browser completely unresponsive.
I'm having this problem particularly when I visit the site Wonkette.

Come on. No one else is having this problem?

Help installing flash detection express

I need some help installing the flash express detection
script.
Can anyone advise me on this?
1) This tutorial assumes that you have already added the
Flash 8 detection scripts to a web page (as explained in the
synopsis
of the implementation process) and have already downloaded the
Flash Player Detection Kit:
a) After you've exported HTML with Flash detection from Flash
8, move the JavaScript code found within the template's
<head> tag to the same location in your page along with the
JavaScript include, AC_OETags.js.
What exactly is it there asking me to do here?
Export what html with flash detection?
Are they talking about when I insert the swf movie file?
Not sure what there saying!
Can you advise?
Kevin

I have several times tried to install adobe flash player (which I'l call ADF for short) and follow each step carefully, to the last step (apparently) stating that ADF is installed,but then I get an email from one source or another asking me to install ADF. I have gone through this routine a number if times, and have a bunch of "Install ADF" signs scatted all over my desktop (I have an iMac).
Most recently, I have received a message that, in order to install ADF, I need to uninstall all previous ADF's BEFORE I download and install an ADF, so I download the uninstall App, thinking I will get some instuction, with that download in uninstalling the ADF residuals on my desktop
Instead, what I get is a potful of UNINSTALL ADF units (which I don't know what to do with, littering my desktop.
HELP!

Flash Detection Question

I am trying to include some script for flash detection on my
site to ensure that my viewers have the right flash player. Does
the Flash Detection Kit also include detection for ActiveX? The
reason I ask is because I have a page that some of my viewer have
trouble seeing and one discovered that she could see the page after
her flash player AND ActiveX were updated. I am not sure whether my
viewers problem is an old flash player or old ActiveX, but I need
to make sure both are up to date first.
If the Flash Detection Kit does not detect ActiveX does
anyone know where I can find code to do that?
Thanks,
Sharon

I use swfObject for Flash detection. It's easier to control
than the Adobe solution and allows you to provide plain html

Hi
Can you tell me which version of dreamweaver you are using (and flash pro, if you have it), as the code you provided has element of a number of different versions (e.g. your js flash files are reasonably new, but your flash inserted into the html body is old, but with the cs3 version of flash player indicated!). Also the detect flash file is no longer required.

Detection script -- play alternative movies?

How can I create alternative content like a quicktime movie
to play as the alternative content, if user doesn't have flash
player 8? I can put text or images in script, but quicktime or
other media embeded in script doesn't show??

I have a detection script put in my flash movie, which is
embeded in my Dreamweaver file, from my Flash 8 authoring. It is
for Flash 8. I want user's who don't have Flash 8 player, to see a
quicktime version of that movie (in it's quicktime version). In the
script section "alternative content" I can only place text or
images and not quicktime or older flash movies -- it doesn't allow
me to. Is there a way to do this??
