I’ve put together a page to install AgileAgenda using SWFObject with the ExpressInstall feature and the AIR Installation Badge.
This means people with a Flash Player less than 9.0.115 should be able to first upgrade their flash player, and then use the easy badge installation method for AIR + the application. I gave it a try on Firefox + Safari on OSX and IE + Firefox on WinXP, all of them with a 9.0.47 flash player and it all seemed to work well. The code also displays a message suggesting people install Flash player or install the AIR application manually if they don’t have any version of Flash.
I’ve put together a small archive of the necessary files to make this work. It contains files from the swfobject guys released under the MIT license, and you can consider anything I wrote to make this work also under that license (which allows you to pretty much use it any way you like).
Thanks Marc,
This is helpful
Marc, this was very cool of you to do. I also use swfobject because it’s reliable and easy to use. I appreciate the effort!
Nice one. Looking forward to trying it out. I’m happy to see that you used SWFObject.
The sample “badge.swf” of Flex3 Beta3 doesn’t work. How did you do that? Is there a source of badge.swf??
The beta3 badge does work, not sure what you’re problem is.
Make sure you’ve set the correct AIR milestone in the HTML code.
Ahhh. I got it. It doesn’t work at localhost or 127.0.0.1. I uploaded them to my site. Then it works. Thanks.
Vista’s localhost doesn’t work … orz
Thanks. Exactly what I needed. Hacked one out myself but yours was much better. Wish the Flex Builder would just come with the SWFObject template instead of their own buggy one
Thanks its nice and easy to workout.
