EMAIL TIP: Try hitting "New Message" in your emailer when starting a new
discussion, rather than hitting "Reply", to avoid becoming invisible in
emailers which thread conversations. (Right now your post is found in
the archive as a reply to "Right-Click Pauses Movie"!) The "references"
field in your message header will show what happened.
For "What's the status on layering HTML and non-HTML?" then you're
right, it's more of a browser issue -- the Macromedia Flash Player has
hooked into WMODE compositing for many years now, and browsers still
vary in their offscreen buffering support. Websearches on "wmode
dowdell" focus closely on this area.
(That private email you paraphrased sounds strange to me, for the same
reasons you listed.)
Summary: You can layer JavaScript atop Flash if the browser supports it,
and more browsers support it now than did five, eight years ago.

Spam killed my private email -- public record is best, thanks.
