[thelist] Flash degrading to .gif

[Mike Townend]

Get the flash plugin/js/whatever to goto a special page (on the first
page they come to) with a url params like ?flash=true

Then get asp/cf to check for a url parameter... If it exists set an
application variable to reflect this... Then on the site pages you can
do an if statement to determine whether or not to display and image or
flash file

Up to a point - that being the point where the user has JS turned off
:-)

Lets say I wanted to achieve the same thing, but server side, preferably
ASP. Any ideas?
