Detect Flash...

[Ram0135]

Hello,
Is there a way that CFM can check if a user has flash and a certain dialup speed... I have to pages... one is dialup (dialup.htm) which is for users with a slow connection and/or dont have flash. I also have another page flash.htm which is for users that have flash and have fast connections. I want CFM to check the users connection (has to be greater than 56k) and leave a cookie that says that the user has the credentials to look at either the flash or html page. Before all this takes place I want CFM to check for the cookie...

Please Help
Ramon

on error resume next

If MSDetect = "true" Then
For i = 2 to 6
If Not(IsObject(CreateObject("ShockwaveFlash.ShockwaveFlash." & i))) Then

Else
flashinstalled = 2
flashversion = i
End If
Next
End If

If flashinstalled = 0 Then
flashinstalled = 1
End If

</SCRIPT>

Explanation
After the detect, the variable flashinstalled can have three values:

2: Flash installed
1: Flash not installed
0: Unknown if Flash is installed

I don't think you can tell what speed the user is connected at. I have just put an option for dial-up and one for highspeed see.
