Question

swfobject.getFlashPlayerVersion doesn’t work in IE, any alternatives?

Answer 1

If your flash version is 10.0.12 then the following code allows you to retrieve the version nr:

var playerVersion = swfobject.getFlashPlayerVersion(); // returns a JavaScript object var majorVersionNr = playerVersion.major; //returns the major nr: 10 var minorVersionNr = playerVersion.minor; //returns the minor nr: 0 var releaseVersionNr = playerVersion.release; //returns the version nr: 12
