[SWFObject] Opera and Firefox

[Chris Colman]

as for the main question: I decided that showing the user a custom
message instead of just displaying the little puzzle piece was a better
user experience. which is why I direct people to go to the adobe site.
this way they don't need to install any activex controls from your site
that they might have trust issues with. or try to install plugins that
they aren't sure about - since there are so many out there these days,
will they really recognize and trust the flash player?
 
I think most people would trust the Flash player. People who wouldn't
trust the Flash player are probably the same people who don't trust
cookies and javascript either so trying to provide them with a
satisfactory web experience is like trying to reason with a 2 year old
who doesn't want to eat their greens.

quickly looking through the swfObject code, you can see that you can set
it as the last param in the constructor:
 
deconcept.SWFObject = function(swf, id, w, h, ver, c, useExpressInstall,
quality, xiRedirectUrl, redirectUrl, detectKey)
 
which means you should be able to do something like:
 
var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "7",
"#336699", false, "high", "", "", false);
so.write("flashcontent");
 
I am actually unsure as what to pass in for the no value xiRedirectUrl
and redirectUrl values without testing it, but if it is not an empty
string (as above), then you should be able to pass in null.
 
var so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "mymovie", "200", "100", "7",
"#336699", false, "high", null, null, false);
 
Geoff, any quick clarification you can add to this?
 
 
Cheers,
Aran

	How do I get the effect of detectflash=false without having to
make sure the page was requested with the ?detectflash=false parameter?
