When separate Quicktime-enhanced and HTML-only versions of a site would be too much work to develop and maintain, an HTML site with optional Quicktime elements is preferable. This script would then be needed on any pages with optional Quicktime elements.
Alternatively, you could use it on a splash page and change the url of any links based on the Quicktime version.
The script can also detect if no Quicktime is installed or if a detection is not possible (for instance, on IE4.5 Mac).
