In my opinion gnash -even the latest version- is still not suitable for the average end user in education -though it is evolving at a great speed-, if what they want is to deal with any random swf contents in the internet. If the target is just a definite subset of flash films, it could be considered, though. Miry -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
