I'm trying to detect the presence of Reader in a browser. Since v.8 was released, my method no longer works for IE. I'm using GBDetect.dll - has this been replaced or....what? Here's my basic method:
<object id="AcroObj" classid="clsid:4F878398-E58A-11D3-BEE9-00C04FA0D6BA"></object>
acroObject = document.getElementById("AcroObj");
acroVersion = acroObject.GbReaderVersion;
if(parseFloat(acroVersion) < 5) .....

thanks.
