Mike, a major problem with flash (as I understand it) is that flash players are not accessible to assistive technologies. I may be working on outdated information here (I would be really pleased to know that I am), but until this problem is solved there will be a requirement for a non-flash alternative.

I am currently working on a draft of a document outlining how Flash will fit into the WAI guidelines. I would also like to work with the group on updating the current examples of Flash on the site, which definitely could use a lot of work. -- Charles McCathieNevile mailto:charles@w3.org phone: +61 (0) 409 134 136 W3C Web Accessibility Initiative http://www.w3.org/WAI Location: I-cubed, 110 Victoria Street, Carlton VIC 3053, Australia September - November 2000: W3C INRIA, 2004 Route des Lucioles, BP 93, 06902 Sophia Antipolis Cedex, France
