Hi there!

I have made presentation using html with full screen function.In those html there are some links to SWF files to be opened in new window.Everthing works fine.

But I am facing a problem which is that, Not everyone having a Flash plug-in and with latest version so that movie will run properly. Flash plug-in detection and auto installation online is possible but I want it all work from CD.

With auto run it will open an index page and will check whether the user has flash player with latest version if YES will play everything and if NOT it will ask the user if he wants to Install the plug-in and after installation will reload the index page.

Urgently help is needed as it has time limits to distribute presentation CD.

Thanx a lot in advance,

Arun

What is your question exactly?

If you want to distribute the Flash plug in on cd, you'll have to sign a distribution license with Macromedia.

But since most computers - over 97% of computers already have Flash installed, I wouldn't worry.
