[SWFObject] express install

[Geoff Stearns]

you can use my expressinstall page to test your system...

http://blog.deconcept.com/swfobject/expressinstall.html

this page requires 8.0.23 - so it will try to upgrade you if you have  
anything lower.

if this works, then it's probably an issue with your swf file - you  
can look at the fla that comes with swfobject and compare the code/ 
movieclips i use in that.

also: it's best to test your expressinstall stuff with flash player 6  
- sometimes if you are using a custom upgrade message, flash player 6  
is really picky about the stuff you can show when you publish from  
flash 8.
