Script to detect flash plugin if not display static image 2

[UNIX72]

Hello all, here is my desire solution. When people visit a site i created with a flash banner and the visitor doesn't have the flash plugin install on their browser, so instead having the visitor download the flash plugin, I just want a static picture to display. I don't want to give the user the option to download the flash plugin because it might deter the user from the site. I think a simpler solution will be just to display a image. Is their javascript for this? Any ideas or links will greatly help, thanks so much!

Adobe provides just such a script:

Some excellent advice about Flash and accessibility:

This is really worth reading. Accessibility is an important issue and good practice will also help your SEO because the content will be shown in the HTML source (not just in SWFs).
