IE7 Sucks.
Silverlight sounds like it will suck.
click to activate sucks.
I mean come on... I hate developing for IE.... how come firefox
works so beautifully - but you have to grab a hacksaw to make
something work in ie? If you use IE (other than checking for cross
browser compatibility issues then your are lamer!)
Can you tell I have been pulling my hair with some javascript ie
errors and click to activate non-sense?

Hi Scott,
I don't understand what you are trying to say. Is there something on a
Microsoft page that can help me? You seem to say that Silverlight and
Flash are very different and I think you are implying that they don't
really compete with each other. Or maybe that the feature or
technology
overlap between them is not as large as some people assume it is?
When I
look at Silverlight from a high level (assuming the clr is
implemented)
it does seem to me to overlap a great deal with Flash. I understand
the
workflow is different and the codecs are different but from a 9000
foot
high perspective they seem to overlap a great deal.
At any rate, this is a Flex discussion list, and I really don't
want to
prolong this thread needlessly. So, if you could could just point
me at
something written by Microsoft about how Silverlight is very different
(at a high level) in what it enables a developer to do, or for an end
user, from Flash I would appreciate it.
Yours truly,
-Brian
