[SWFObject] Express Install unsupported

[Geoff Stearns]

hmm, well in that case there is a way for you to just add the check  
manually for each movie..

you can do a version lookup and check the version like this:

var doExpressInstall = true;
var version = deconcept.SWFObjectUtil.getPlayerVersion();
if (document.getElementById && (version['major'] == 8 && version 
['minor'] == 27)) {
	doExpressInstall = false;
}

then in your swfobeject code:

so = new SWFObject("movie.swf", "movie", 500, 500, 9, "#ffffff",  
doExpressInstall);



of course you can add in checks for whatever other versions have  
issues as well.
