I need to go to an alternative html page if flash is not detected.

Does anyone know of a straight forward tutorial?

thanks

Very simple one.. using the Refresh META Tag. Go to one of my recently
built sites:

http://www.commisso.com.au

and hit the stop button on your browser real quickly when the page first
loads. Check the source code out and you'll see what I've done. The first
page has a SWF which detects for Flash 4 but if the SWF doesn't load then it
goes to an alternative page to ask the viewer to download the Flash Plugin.
If the SWF loads then it goes to the main page where the main SWF file is.
To see it in action, refresh the page and it will do it's job.

Search the group by subject .
Redirect, detection etc...
This is very frequently asked question here.
Last 3 post I reply just now were exactly about the same thing.

thanks for your reply

Maybe my question was put badly, I need to know what to put between the
<noembed> tags to automatically get an html page. Preferably something
that works cross platform/browser.

Did scan your posts Urami but could not find.

thanks again
