Hi, i use a simple embed swf movie in one of many pages i own, but recently I build a new page in html5. But i tested in Internet Explorer and doesnt work well. What i need its a script code in AS3 to use in my swf movie that detect the browser and if the browser its IE9 load an old page, but if its other browser is like mozilla or chrome, load the new page in html5.

It is possible to do that in AS3 right?

Thanks to all

i think you want to detect the browser using javascript and use javascript to direct the browser to the html5 or flash page.

You should take kglads advice and not load flash unless you actually want to. JavaScript should be used to do that detection as you'll need it to do it via Flash anyhow.

Here's a tutorial on flash communicating via ExternalInterface with the browser to read its useragent string to determine what browser it is, nonetheless.

You can paste this in your browsers address bar to pop a dialog with what Flash is going to get back. This is just basic JavaScript. You could use what you see returned here easier than going through the hassle of ExternalInterface..

javascript:alert(window.navigator.userAgent.toString());
