I'm compiling to HTML5 but I'd like to keep flash as an option for IE. I'm
familiar with using Iframes but I'm not too huge on them. Tonight (or
possibly tomorrow) I'll work on manually linking my scrollbar to an Iframe.
Something like Iframe-page position (or whatever it is) = percentage of
scrollthumb to scrolltrack.

I'll let you know,

Chris
