This question already has an answer here:

Recently, Wolfram informed me that there's no way to have a Print button in a CDF running within a plugin environment since the plugin does not interact with the operating system. If you have a way to solve that, it would be great!

But now more importantly, since there are such significant differences between the 2 environments, including the security sandbox, is there any way to detect programmaticly in which environment the CDF is being displayed, so that one could adjust what is being displayed to the user, and what is not?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I do not understand the question. Are you asking how to find out if CDF plugin is installed in the browser? If so, yes, you can check for that (using Javascript, inside the HTML page itself ofcourse). If you asking for something else, then I am not sure I understand then. – Nasser Mar 12 at 19:30
@rm-rf: you're right, it is. Didn't find it when I search for this info prior to posting. THANK YOU! There's a very thorough answer contained there. – Gregory Klopper Mar 13 at 23:21

If the question is how to determine if the file is being viewed in the plug-in, then here's how:

CurrentValue["PluginEnabled"]

This is a good enough answer to get awarded an "answer", but as I recently found out, the full answer is a combination of a few things Dynamic@{$LicenseType, Developer$ProtectedMode, CurrentValue["PluginEnabled"]}` – Gregory Klopper Mar 13 at 23:23
