If it hasn't changed, how do you detect the difference between versions 7 and 8 using javascript? Reason I ask, my company has a "browser checker" for students to go to so they can check their browser and plug-ins for compatibility with another site they have to visit. There are safeguards in there for if the browser cannot detect what version of Acrobat is used, but as it is, using Internet Explorer and Reader 8, the browser checker still says that Adobe Reader 7 is installed.
