Cross Browser Flash Detection in Javascript
(16 answers)
Closed 7 years ago.
Is it possible to check the version of the Flash Player installed in a browser using Javascript?
You can check an example here.
There is a nice, lightweight JavaScript Flash Detection Library, which is smaller and more convenient than using SWFObject. You should consider it, if you only want to check if Flash is installed, what version of Flash Player is installed etc., but you're using different method of playing FLV movies.
SWFObject should be considered only, if you're also using it for playing Flash movies. For just checking, if Flash is installed or what version of Flash player is installed, it is to heavy, in my opinion.
You should have a look at swfobject2: http://code.google.com/p/swfobject/

How can I capture an image via the user's webcam using getUserMedia?
(3 answers)
Closed 2 years ago.
I am looking to capture the image from the webcam.
I have tested quite a few libraries including
https://github.com/jhuckaby/webcamjs
https://github.com/amw/jpeg_camera
But all existing libraries are very old and no longer maintained by authors.
I have also tried "navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia" to capture the image but it does not work with safari.
I am wondering if you can suggest something that works cross-browsers and can manage a responsive view as well.
Thanks.
The navigator.mediaDevices.getUserMedia method should work with the latest version of safari 11. You'll want to use the MediaDevices.getUserMedia() method which has full support by almost every latest browser (except IE).
Note that if your writing an HTML file and opening it in the browser, it may not work because your browser may require a secure context (HTTPS instead of HTTP) to use that method.
See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/MediaDevices/getUserMedia
Also, Sam Dutton created a great example, and you can find the github code for it as well.

May be cordova can help you to create windows desktop applications using HTML/Javascript
Please let me know if you have any idea about cordova or not. Because I dont want any downvote for my any of answers.
You could look into nw.js
Its based on node js and can be used for desktop application written in html / css / js.
nw.js (called Node-WebKit before) is a good way to make simple applications, which allows you to use Node.js applications and manipulate the browser's window.
Electron is - I think - a better way because it works as simple as nw.js but permit to make more powerful applications : you can register web protocols, manipulate window in depth, and some things that you can't do with nw.js.

How can a website detect the smartphone model of a device that requests a webpage?
Google Analytics can get that information as you can see in the image below:
I found this: http://blog.mobileesp.com/?p=177 but only a few phones are recognized by this script. I am looking for an PHP or Javascript solution
From Javascript you can read this property navigator.userAgent and PHP $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] both return you the browser version .
In my experience, the best method for detecting mobile/tablet is to use the PHP mobile_detect class which is updated regularly as new devices are released. Unfortunately, I don't know if it provides a way to get the different device types.
User agent parsing is the method you'll have to use, and if mobile_detect doesn't have it, it ought to at least give you a good starting point on how it's done.

I just want to know if we can use JavaScript for creating iPhone apps. And if we can how do we do it? Do I have to become an expert in JavaScript to do that?
Yes.
You can use PhoneGap or Appcelerator.
Yes
You can use PhoneGap which is a wrapper of embedded browser
You should be an expert if you're seriously working on the project.
Yes you can.. No need to be an expert to do that.. Search & explore about Phonegap.. You can develop html css javascript based application & wrap them for any mobile os like iOS, android or windows phone 8 etc.

It is possible, we have some old docs here available on archive.org:
