You ask a lot of questions, my friend! :-) I haven't looked at SMIL for while, but some quick probing of my colleagues in the Web design world suggests it is viewed as pretty much a dead end.
As far as I can tell, e.g., Firefox doesn't support the SMIL format, which in itself is pretty much a kiss of death. Macromedia and Microsoft were not part of the W3C committee that created the SMIL spec, which wsa largely the invention of Real Networks. To this day, Real's players apparently support SMIL just fine. Now given that SMIL files play through the QT player object in Rev, all of that may be moot. But in searching the Web, I didn't find very much info on SMIL that post-dated about 2002. In 2005, the W3C reved the spec to 2.1 but nothing has happened since. Not sure all (or any) of those are valid data points, but my take is that SMIL is a frown. :-) Dan _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list [email protected] Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
