Is there any way to detect what version of of a particular swf movie the user has cached locally and if it’s an older version, bypass the cached copy and load the swf from the server?

I update my flash gallery often and I would need to clear the cache on my browser before I can see the changes. I’m afraid many users will see older versions of my gallery.
