Adobe will be releasing a Detection Kit revision with the Active Content
JS in the coming weeks. Just have to work out a few bugs.

well, the adobe fix doesn't include plugin detection... and I don't
think it supports Express Install if you want to use that.

 

And the code may be smaller (I haven't examined the active content fix
that closely)

 

You seem to have a ton of other js code in your document that could all
be removed and replaced by swfobject as well.

no sorry your not missing anything. But heres an additional question.
How hard would it be for me to integrate flash object into what I have
presently? What would the advantages be? Other than that every one else
is already using it. My content appears to be working fine but I know
that I will need to eventually integrate the swfObject. Any advice?

	neither of those sites is using SWFObject... the first one is
using the mm active content fix, and the second one is just a normal
embed... am I missing something?

	I am using swfObject. Want to see the scripting in action, here
is a link to one of our sites www.strunkLp.com this site is using a
flash header. It is not the generator content site that I was trying to
view in firefox http://www.mikewileyproductions.com Let me know what you
think. These sites are in our production environment and have been
released to the web. Currently in our development environment we have
corrected the problem utilizing the ASP code that I was talking about
before.

	 

	You are right about the Flash object working in Firefox and
netscape, for the first example that I listed, StrunkLP that is a flash
hybrid site with a flash header and it displays fine, the displaying
issue has something to do with the content that is created and published
via generator.

	 

	Oh and BTW, I don't use generator as it is a dead technology for
the most part, I am simply turning wrenches here at work trying to get
the technology to continue to work effectively given the current IE
active content turbulence in the WWW...

	 

	Thanks,

	Chad

		are you using swfobject? or some other js scheme? 

		 

		swfobject works fine in
firefox/safari/mozilla/opera/whatever - can you post a link to the page?

		Ok so a little researching got me some nifty browser
detection schemes and now I am able to see the flash content in all
browsers. All we ended up using was some ASP "HTTP_USER_AGENT" and some
conditional logic to direct the browser based on browser name, then used
the new JS function for IE, and the old way with the <object> <embed>
tags for anything other than IE.... works really well.

		 

		Thanks.
