expand the network test with browser plugin detection

Hi,

I invite OM users now to first check if they have the necessary Java and 
Flash plugins installed. I use this simple HTML page:

<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Test for Flash</h1>
<p>See to it that you receive the message:</p><p 
style="font-style:italic;"> You have version ... installed.</p>
<iframe src="http://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/" height="565" 
width="750" scrolling="no"> </iframe>
<h1>Test for Java</h1>
<p>Click on Verify Java version. The page will indicate whether you have 
the last Java version or not.</p>
<iframe src="http://java.com/en/download/installed.jsp" height="565" 
width="750" scrolling="no"></iframe>
</body>

I point to this page in config.xml as the currentappnameurl.


Maybe it is a good idea to expand the network test at login to also 
check for the availability of these plugins.
This guy for instance has a Javascript detection method:
