QT (and other) plug-in detection scripts



Does anyone know why this Apple solution fails with the current release of IE 7? It falsely reports that QT 7 is not installed.

More specifically, function detectQuickTimeActiveXControl() returns false

http://developer.apple.com/internet/webcontent/detectplugins.html

Just visit the page with IE 7, with QT 7 installed, to see it.

I've been investigating various plug-in detection scripts, and so far that is the best I found--except for the IE7/QT7 problem. Also, it does not report the version of QT, unfortunately.

This one reports the QT version, but also fails for QT in IE7:

What's your favorite solution for detecting the Main Four media plug-ins in popular browsers?

Any tips will be appreciated.
