<div style="WORD-WRAP: break-word">in the latest version of swfobject, the write() method will return true or false depending on whether the flash content was written...
<div><br> </div>
<div>so you could do this:</div>

<div>if (!so.write('content')) {</div>
<div><span style="WHITE-SPACE: pre"></span>// flash was not written, do something</div>

<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ive been using swfobject, which is very handy - And i have been asked to do some flash detection (for people coming with a Flash 7 player, to play Flash 8 swfs) - in Javascript, for various reasons from my manager. Since when you put into SWFObject() the parameter to write for a flash "8" swf, if someone (under IE or firefox) got Flash Player 7, it will not write anything into the "Flashcontent" div, here is my kind of solution , and at least compared to scripts you can find here and there, this one looks to work well with ffox.

<div> </div>
<div><script></div>
<div>function returnobj(id) {<br> if (document.getElementById) {<br> return document.getElementById(id);<br> } else if (document.all) {<br> return document.all[id];<br> } else if (document.layers) {<br> return
document.layers[id];<br> } else {<br> return false;<br> }<br>}<br> </div>
<div>
<p>function didFlashWork()<br>{</p>
<p>var target = returnobj("Flashcontent");</p>
<p>if(target) {<br>if(target.innerHTML.length<2) {</p>
<p> target.innerHTML = "Sorry you do not have flash player/the good version of flash player.. please see <a href='<a onclick="return top.js.OpenExtLink(window,event,this)" href="http://www.adobe.com'/" target="_blank">
http://www.adobe.com'</a>>Here</a> to dl a flash player.."; </p>
<p>}</p>
<p>}</p>
<p>}</p>
<p></script></p>
<div> <br> </div>
<p>(...)</p>
<p><html></p>
<p><body></p>
<p><script type="text/javascript" src="swfobject.js"></script><br></p>
<p><div id="Flashcontent"></div><br>var so = new SWFObject("test.swf","mymovie", 200, 200, "8", "#000000");</p>
<p>so.write("Flashcontent");<br>didFlashWork();<br></script></p>
