<br>-Chris</blockquote><div><br>Will FLASH be required?<br><br>I use Solaris at work and Macromedia/Adobe are *VERY* slow at releasing new versions of FLASH for that operating system. Furthermore, I have never seen any version of FLASH which works well under Solaris. It is sooo bad, that I cannot visit FLASH-only websites.
<br><br>It is extremely aggravating to go to a site which says "You need FLASH" to view this site. I have FLASH installed, but the site wants a newer version. But, no "newer" version is available for Solaris.
<br><br>Another major problem, is sites which have a FLASH window which is supposed to grow & shrink. Under Solaris, the FLASH window is always drawn at it's largest size, and therefore hides any information which is under it. This makes it impossible to read/navigate any site which uses FLASH in that way.
<br></div><br>I have been developing under Solaris for 13 years, and over that time have come to absolutely HATE FLASH. Hate it, Hate it, Hate it!<br><br>I have a feeble hope that Adobe will do better with FLASH than Macromedia did.
