But I was always a huge fan of SVG :) Yeah there are some nice uses of flash kicking about. Video, audio in particular but I've also seen nice gallery implementations that use flash. The main problem with Flash to my mind is how associated it is with ads and garish colour schemes - its grown up a lot since then, but not everyone has made the switch. I swear to god if I have to zap that damned mosquito one more time to make my PC stop making stupid insect noises... - Sent via the backstage.bbc.co.uk discussion group.
