Curious to know if anybody has had luck with the SWFObject version detection and a FP9/AS3 built swf?

I am getting it to successfully detect the version and DISPLAY the right stuff, but I am hoping that I can get the “behind the scenes flash player update” to work.

BTW, there is not much documentation on AS3 and SWFObject or any kind of AS3-built swf auto update.

I tried taking the swf detection/auto update in a Flex2 project and copy it over. That didn’t succeed very well.
