Apple is obviously rejecting Flash to protect it's 'App' revenue. I've been on Android phones that run Flash and display all my content perfectly smooth. It can be quite frustrating how they are trying to bury it when I still have yet to see HTML5 replicate the type of interactive content Flash is capable of producing.
Is there any way to display a message on the iPad when the Flash player is not found?
I'd like it to says something along the lines of:
"Unfortunately the Apple iPad does not support the Flash player because their business interests do not want it taking away from their App revenue.
Did you know that the Dell Streak, HTC Flyer, Blackberry Playbook, Motorola Xoom, Samsung Galaxy Tab, Toshiba Thrive, and HP Touchpad all support the Flash player?"
My HTML code looks something like this...

<script type="text/javascript" language="JavaScript">
function setFlashSize(){
var viewportheight = document.body.clientHeight;
var viewportwidth = document.body.clientWidth;
var mydiv = document.getElementById("flashid");
var styleheight = parseInt(mydiv.style.height);
var stylewidth = parseInt(mydiv.style.width);
if (viewportwidth<880){
document.getElementById("flashid").style.width = 880+"px"; }

if (viewportheight<760){

}
setFlashSize();
