Good point.

The page the users are redirected to doesn't have to be a "get Flash"
page...it can be any page you want. The home page for your HTML site for
example.

You simply specify the URL in the Publish Settings dialog box (with FLMX
2004 it's all built in).

Subject: Re: [ cf-dev ] Flash detection code

Duncan,

That's fine if you have a site that requires flash to be installed.  I'm

building a site that has both a flash and non-flash version, and want to

be able to display the correct site, without having to get the user to 
install flash or anything like that. It must be possible!

Only thing I've found so far is this:
