Is it possible to display a jpeg on a website if flash isn't installed? How do I do this in HTML?

Question

I have got a program that crates simple flash animations, and it generates the HTML to cut and paste into the HTML code. This is an example:

<OBJECT classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-4...

codebase="http://active.macromedia.com/f...

ID=1tss WIDTH=500 HEIGHT=350>

<PARAM NAME=movie VALUE="1tss.swf">

<PARAM NAME=quality VALUE=high>

<PARAM NAME=loop VALUE=true>

<EMBED src="1tss.swf" loop=true quality=high

WIDTH=500 HEIGHT=350 TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"

PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.macromedia.com/s...

</EMBED>

</OBJECT>

Now, instead of trying to download flash if it doesn't exist, is it possible to specify a plain ordinary JPEG to display in its place?

If so, how do I do it?

Answer 1

Adobe has a flash detection kit available. http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplaye...

Check it out. I guess you should be able to find what you need there.
