Actually NOT so -- I would think these kind of Flash sites are in the minority, at least in 2004. Most of you are appear to be behind recent Flash technology which provides developers with the ability to make their Flash available to people with Disabilities. Of course the official Flash product provides this feature, often 3rd party Flash applications don't provide any mechansim to make Flash accessible. Additonally many Flash developers don't make the obscene splash pages that we all hate. Things have moved on, and improved. Not all Flash developers are morons. ;) For accessibility reference in Flash see; <http://www.macromedia.com/macromedia/accessibility/features/flash/> -- Steve +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Monday Sep 20 2004 08:16:01 AM EDT +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Computers can figure out all kinds of problems, except the things in the world that just don't add up.
