Detect Flash Block for Website

I have a flash blocker installed on my browser. On certain sites, such as soundcloud.com, when I go there I get a notification that I must enable flash for it to work correctly.

How do I achieve the same functionality on my website?

In other words how do I detect if a flash block program is enabled?

I prefer client side code only if possible.

Use ExternalInterface & call a javascript function to let the page know whether flash is blocked or not.

Something as simple as:

AS3:

ExternalInterface.call("flashLoaded");

& in JS:

function flashLoaded() {

   // Flash was not blocked, since you are here.

}
