    Hi,
    I want to redirect the user on a different page if they don't have flash player 8 installed. Is it possible to do that using SWFObject? I can see there are some redirect attributes in the script, but I'm no t familiar with js and I'm not sure how to use them.

    Sure you can... It's not recommended, but you can do it like this:

    so = new SWFObject(....);
    so.addAttribute("redirectUrl", "http://www.example.com");
    so.write("target");

    it should be setAttribute, not addAttribute and it works :)
