    Can I see a show of hands about the prefered method of flash detection and why? Im specifically interested in which method has been found to be most compatible with good search engine ranking results:

    1. Moock FPI (uses JS to detect flash version and forward to main.html or upgrade.html) set in a frameset with detect.html and blank.html
    The moock FPI also uses a backup meta refresh to upgrade page as a backup for JS disabled browsers.

    or:

    2. detect.swf approach (uses actionscript to check flash version & getURL(mainpage); set in an index.html with a 5 second meta refresh to upgrade.html.

    Alternate method suggestions (so long as they allow for a clean main/upgrade path and dont use the dreaded splash page) are welcome.
