IMHO it is on topic, because following the standard it should be
possible to test, if a method exists.

Well, this little code snip is part of a flash detection. The user
should be automatically redirected after detection. There is a
noscript-part with a simple link for users with disabled javascript.

We are going to drop this detection soon, but now we have to keep it,
because there are several parts of a complex web application which
depend on it.

I need the replace method because the detection page may not be
recorded in the browser history. (Otherwise we'll get some problems
with google and their ad-words policies).
