A what would/what do you do question:
We are developing a site that's got some flash elements. For the non-flash
people, there will be html elements that swap into those places.
I'd *like* to do a flash detect and then set a variable based on the results
and then do something like
if flash IS 'yes'
insert flash header
else
insert html header
But, I'm concerned about what variables I can use. Here's my thinking.
1. Session variables expire, so I don't want to use those. Since I don't
want to have to push a user back to a flash detect again.
2. Cookies are probably my best bet. Then I wouldn't even need to use the
flash detect if they come back again. But what if someone has cookies
disabled?
3. Client variables have the same problem, right? If a user has cookies
disabled, client vars won't get set.
4. CFID and CFTOKEN lend themselves to the same problem, right?
So, here I am wondering what I can do. If I'm wrong on #3 or #4, then I'm
okay, I suppose. I could also pass an id in the url from page to page, but
I'd prefer not to if I can avoid it.
Any advice or thoughts is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Evan
