I have used the following script to determine which version of my site (Flash or Non-Flash) visitors will see:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>FlashPlanet</TITLE>
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="FlashPlanet.com Script Generator">
</HEAD>
</SCRIPT>
<SCRIPT LANGUAGE="VBScript">
<!--
On error resume next
useFlash = NOT IsNull(CreateObject("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash"))
-->
The problem i have, is that i have had a report that someone was taken to the Flash version of my web site, but i could they could not see the Flash parts of the site.
I can only think that this is because they have Flash 1, 2, or 3, whereas i am creating in Flash 4. Does anyone think this is the case? Or do you think there is another problem i am encountering?
If there is a problem with the Script i have, do you know where i can find a better one. Or is there a way that i can save Animations created in Flash 4,into Flash 1? I have tried clicking on "Flash 1" after selecting to save my animation, but it will not let me save in the Format of Flash 1, for me to see if this is indeed the problem.
I look forward to peoples comments and hope that my site will soon be available to everyone, showing the appropriate version :-)
Make your first page redirect to a HTML page in 2 secs and insert on the SAME first page a flash animation which redirects your visitors to a flashed page after 0 secs.
Since you want them to have Flash 4 here's an idea.
Make a small 1x1 Flash app which uses a feature only in Flash 4. And after it uses the Flash 4-only feature make it redirect to flash_4.html or the Flash 4-enabled page. If the visitor doesn't have Flash 4 then they'll stay at that same page.
I can't help you with the actual creation, just the logic. I'm pretty bad at Flash.
p.s. I just tried to elaborate on what Freesources said before me...
