General Web Standards: FlashObject - coding a selective redirect for 800x600 users!?
Bottom of Page1 to 2 of 2

Hey folks,
I've just installed the lovely new version of FlashObject (http://blog.deconcept.com/flashobject/)
Can anyone help a non-programmer work out how to redirect anyone with 800x600 resolution or below to a new popup window that doesn't have toolbars/statusbar?
All others users would still be shown the flash content in the same page... but where should I add the javascript to detect the stage size... before FlashObject in it's own javascript block... or inside flashobject.js?
Any input much appreciated :-D

Update: I've tried adding this snippet before the FlashObject tag... but it is triggering popup blockers like crazy!? I also need to find a way to stop the swf from loading in the original page if the popup is triggered - at the moment it loads in both pages - doh!
<script language="JavaScript">
function myPopup() {
window.open( "index2.php", "new", "status = 0, height = 790, width = 590, resizable = 0" )
}
var Wide = screen.width;
if (Wide <= 800){
myPopup();
}
OR should I maybe detect the stage size in Flash using actionscript, and get Flash to offer up a link to a bigger popup window if the stage is less than 800x600?
(At least this way you would be sure that everyone had Flash installed properly before doing anything else)
