There's hope in browsers implementing the "Flash"-like functionalities using HTML5, which has become important due to the growing markets in tablets and smartphones (the "mobile web" where "Flash" doesn't play a significant role). One of the problems is media codecs (where lawyers fight), another one is the availability of design and development environments for "non-technical" users who normally use pirated copies of some "Adobe" programs to create "Flash" content for (or instead of) HTML-based web pages. Those who actually _pay_ for their tools often tend to deliver a much better user experience even by using "Flash". As I said, it's just a tool, but a tool by itself doesn't get the work done, you need to properly use it. "Flash" is already on its way into the coffin, it will be much more profitable (and essential to stay in business) to publish content in a more portable way. In my opinion, HTML5 is the way to go, as soon as they got the mentioned main problems out of the way. -- Polytropon Magdeburg, Germany Happy FreeBSD user since 4.0 Andra moi ennepe, Mousa, ... _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-questions-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"
