Sorry, I meant flash can be used to display something coherent acrosss

Screen size will be a limitation for any default browser though, which
made me wonder if there is some kind of sniffer module built in to ss.

Thanks, I meant to point that out as well. _forcing_ someone to install
flash is very bad form, but sniffing for it is good form- IMHO.
