Anyone knows of a solution to the first question?
Thanks alot

yup, their browser was set to not execute js/vb.
and yes i'd set up a bit of text along the lines of, "sorry, your settings
are such that we cannot find out if you have the latest flash player, if you
know you have 8 click here to view, if not click here to get it" kind of
thing...
but the client just didn't like the idea of closing browsers, going to other
sites etc. etc. all the stuff you've heard a million times. i hadn't heard
it for a while though!
shame, because, the express install thing is sweet in ie, with the
redirection and everything it's very painless. not much you can do when they
have their browser set up by a corporate IT security nazi ;)
i suggested doing something server side to see if they had flash, but the
express install requires r65 to work and AFAIK you can't get the player
version with PHP. please someone tell me i'm wrong....

Tom, could you elaborate a bit more on what security scenario would cause
the no script?
Do they have js / vb script disabled in their browsers? Wouldnt the no
script just open a page with a link to upgrade?

Hi,
I'm having a serious detection issue with macromedias own flash
detection code which you all probably know can be auto generated along
with the html file under publish settings in the Flash8 editor or can be
found in their detection kit which contains it as well.
The problem is related to the activeX plugin detection more precisely
inside the VBScript function below. When the shockwave object is created
it asks for the version string:
swVersion = swControl.GetVariable("$version")
and if any of the plugins above is installed it crashes with an error
message saying an error happened in Flash player 6.0.xx.ocx. and the
browser window shuts down. No errors with plugins lower or higher than
that.
Has anyone seen this before and knows what to do? Since I'm not the
great VBScript shark I'm pretty stuck here and just detecting the clean
version number is not enough when you need 6.0.65 to use the new auto
install procesdure.
<!-- // Visual basic helper required to detect Flash Player ActiveX
control version information
Function VBGetSwfVer(i)
on error resume next
Dim swControl, swVersion
swVersion = 0
set swControl = CreateObject("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash." +
CStr(i))
if (IsObject(swControl)) then
swVersion = swControl.GetVariable("$version") //Here it crashes
end If
VBGetSwfVer = swVersion
End Function
