I doubt you could update it directly through flash. It seems like that would be a huge security issue.

I agree, I think the only way to do it is to download the installer from macromedia’s site. If your project is on a cd, you could place the installer on the cd and call/run that possibly via a flash projector.

well, i guess that there is an javascript you have to insert on html to update the flash player version, but i’m not sure about that…
