[Extendflash] Differenciating between Flash 7 and flash 8

[Derek Vadneau]

The Flash IDEs use the authoring player regardless of the installed 
browser player, so it is specific to the IDE.

var v:Array = System.capabilities.version.split(' ');
var vn:Array = v[1].split(',');
if (Number(vn[0]) == 7)
{
// Flash MX 2004
}
else
{
// Flash 8
}

Do to some of the changes between the JSFL for Flash 7 and that for Flash 
8,
I'm having to do some updating on some of my extensions.

My question is, is there a function or method I can use so my extension 
can
tell which version of flash it being used on, so that for example if the
user has flash 8 or greater that certain function will be available that 
can
make use of the new code, while if the user is using flash 7 then they can
continue to use the same original functions?
