swfobject doesn't have a built-in redirect.  your code won't work.

if you don't plan on using alternate content and decide to redirect users,
you have to do it with javascript:

if(swfobject.hasFlashPlayerVersion("8.0.0")){

swfobject.embedSWF...

} else {

window.location = "http://www.google.com";;

}

however i suggest you stick to swfobject.embedSWF() as described in the
swfobject 2.2 documentation. use expressinstall and proper fallback content.
