hey guys, i’m trying to detect user’s flash version (not a lot of people have flash player 9), so if they’re flash player is not 9, my website will automatically ask them to download the latest version.

i actually found the script on Flash Help, it’s goes a little something like:

if(System.capabilities.version != (Win “8,0,0,0”)){  
getUrl(“notavailable.html”)

the question is, how do i know wat code(Win “8,0,0,0”) to input?

all i need is a flash player 9 to enter my site.

erm, is there a way to let them auto download flash player 9?

that’ll be a charm, thankx
