Well, we'd want it for the first reason - we could email preople saying to go to http://funkyapplication/viewName/itemID for instance. We've not looked at maybe using the HistoryManager for this yet. > Q1: Do you think about deep linking primarily in the context of SEO, or > do you often want deep linking for non-search-related tasks? Our key usage of Flex at the moment is extranet stuff: workflow/pipe line visulisation, a sprinkle of search and 'have a conversation', our corporate site is CFML with Verity for searching the content. Obviously SEO would be more important if we ever re-did it in Flex. > Q2: Would you have us invest in deep linking before SEO, or is it of > more use to you if they come out together?

I would rather have things as and when they are ready, than hold up one feature because another isn't ready - this applies in general (think Linux flash player !) as well as here. -- Tom Chiverton Helping to appropriately leverage open-source materials **************************************************** This email is sent for and on behalf of Halliwells LLP.
