flash (macromedia):
I am developing an html page with flash content but need alternate content for
people without the version of Flash required. (pretty simple so far.)

I am using Flash 8, and when I export the html and copy it into my page, the
alternate content displays fine if it is just simple text. But when I paste in
html with a table containing numerous row, with rollovers, etc., it just
doesn't display in a browser with flash or without flash.

Any ideas? At the bottom of this message, i am pasting the some of the entire
alternate content including the code generated by Flash for the alternate
content.

One other related question. Since the alternate content has rollovers, where
does the javascript for the rollovers go? Does in the page head, or does it go
in the alternate content area?

Any help on this is greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Code:

document.write(oeTags); // embed the flash movie
} else {
var alternateContent = '<TABLE WIDTH=750 BORDER=0 align="center"
CELLPADDING=0 CELLSPACING=0>

Rather than using your own solution, I'd suggest looking "detecting flash"
on Google. You'll find a myriad of tutorials, methods, and you can also
go to
