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.
