Please avoid flash like the plague.
Java is also a big no-no.
Some Javascript is *probably* acceptable.

Just my 0.02.

Norman.

PS. I think it was Tim Berners Lee (inventor of the WWW) who said recently
that 'Flash is the worst thing to happen to the Web'. I suspect he should
know :o)

Yes I believe he said so. I think though that his remark had to do with 
Flash being so completely detached from the web as he intended it to be 
i.e. Open instead of (Flash-like) cryptic and closed.
The idea behind Flash though I think is good. If you compare for example my 
flash animation for Peter's site (www.q40.de) you will see that it is less 
than 130K. The same thing with say DHTML (M$ crap) or Javascript would take 
more than 300K *I know... I tried*.
With animated GIF it would take ohhh forget it :-) hehe
