ide seems quite easy to get into. The 3d-functions are
well integrated into the IDE so you can navigate between 3d-models in a
scene as easily as you do between movie clips in flash. And there are lot's
of features beside this 3d-part. Intresting times ahead!

I couldn't give less of a crap about putting 3d on the web, and i'm
pretty sure the average consumer agrees with me. Content rules.
I seem to recall Shockwave 3d not ever really taking off, and if 3d is
the only thing sparkle has over Flash it ain't gonna do much good as a
competitor.

Is there a decent way of getting the _x / _y position of a caret in a
