floating ad compatibility

[decibelau]

Hi,

I'm trying to make a floating flash advertisment using the wmode parameter (as
used in technote 14201 -http://www.macromedia.com/go/tn_14201), I have the
movie set up but my only concern is the movie playing in non-compatible
browsers as mentioned in the technote... Has anyone come across any code that
can be used to detect the browser & remove the flash movie / div layer from the
page in any browser wmode is not compatible with? (possibly javascript?)

Thanks,
Chris

You'd have to know (by testing, reading, studying, hearsay, etc.) what
versions of what browsers don't support it. The following article is the
most comprehensive Flash plugin browser sniffing information I've seen.
