Can anyone tell me how i can have a webpage display a substitute image (JPG, GIF or PNG) in the place of animated Flash content if Flash Player is not installed? Kinda like MsgPlus.net & MsgPlusLive.net does.

Thanks

Well if msgplus.net and msgpluslive.net do it, surely you can just look in the source code?

try these

code:

---

<script type="text/javascript" src="gfdd_flash.js"></script>

<div id="flashsoon">
<a href="http://www.msgplus.net" title="Click to go to msgplus.net"><img src="soon_alt.png" alt="Messenger Plus! Live is coming soon"/></a>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">
// <![CDATA[
       
    var fo = new FlashObject("soon.swf", "soon", "100%", "100%", "8", "#ffffff");
    fo.addParam("menu", "false");
    fo.write("flashsoon");
       
// ]]>
</script>

Exactly what I said, except I was too lazy to actually go find the code

Ok, yes your are right. I normally do just look in source code, but wasn't sure if it'd show proper code if it a PHP page. So i admit i didnt even try looking.

Sorry, but thanks for the suggestions and help
