To shed a different light on things, I've found
that the one of slickest ways to implement Flex is to do it in conjunction with
the web app rather than replacing it. You can communicate between
different flex apps on the screen with SO.
I.e. A commerce site that has the catalog in a
familiar html paging format, but the item details area and shopping cart are in
flex.
You sort of get best of both worlds, and it can be
hella slick - just often over looked. =)

I'm not sure how the search engines spiders would interpret
honestly. If you are referring to putting everything between the
transparent div as in "<div
...><HTML><BODY>....</BODY></HTML></div>"
that comprises the whole site, then maybe, but I would not count on it because
the SE may not know why its in the div, plus this would require you to somehow
create HTML for every page and put it in here. SE's are very specific to
W3C standards, HTML tags, etc. I would not know the answer to this off hand,
but it sounds like it may not work, unless there is a standard out there for
this scenario. I know enough about SEO to get a good infrastructure
setup so your site can gain from the natural SEO that will be performed;
however, I do now know how it would react in this scenario. Leaning
towards a "probably not" with what i'm hearing so far, but if you provided me
an example, i could try to guestimate.

Brent,
I don't deal as much
with SEO as you seem to, so maybe you can answer this: Why couldn't you put
that information in the HTML wrapper that goes around the flash .swf file?
Put it in a completely transparent div, off screen somewhere, or with it's
hidden attribute set... something like that. Would that sort of thing
work?

Well, search engines anticipate
HTML driven content. They want to see information in H1 tags, put
precendence on this information, etc etc etc (an exact science that
requires full time concentration), but Flash has always screwed up SEO for
the reasons behind "its in another file".
There is a company
(I forget the name), that built a content mgmt system around flash so you
could build sites in flash and reap the benefits of SEO, btu they were in
bed with the search engines and had I guess "the recipe and access to
confidential information" just to make it work. Long story short,
SEO is the way of the new "Marketing" initiative on the web, and if
technology does no accomodate, well i'm sure they'll make it eventually as
this can kill the usage of a technology for websites. Shopping carts
are a prime example: you want all of your inventory available to be
sniffed by the search engines.
I was just curious if Flex made
this possible.
