One example that uses the satay method and i think some of the other things
that were talking about here is.
www.disney.com.


I think there is also one in the css vault.
If you do a search for flash
there your will find it.

BTW I'm going to use this gracefully degrading method on one of the 
projects that are currently under development, so if you send a mail in 
a month or so, I might show you dev site.

Interesting Jan,  how would you do that - any examples?
Use the  element properly[1] and insert an alternative in there 
(image, any styled code - even image map[2] etc. ...).

No examples, though. Sorry (can't remember any good).

What about hybrid sites where the content is primarily xhtml and the visuals
or branding utilize a swf(with alternate content of course)?
That's great if it is done by a standards-wise designer, so it's done 
properly (with the fallback alternatives).

IMHO that is quite OK, if you put inside  some alternative content
(images, mosltly).
Don't make menu in Flash. Flash doesn't let user choose to open links
in new window/tab.

So far we've discussed sites that are basically a flash container with a
separate html site for accessabilty.


What about hybrid sites where the content is primarily xhtml and the visuals
or branding utilize a swf(with alternate content of course)?

Right now im building a site that is primarily xhtml but uses swfs for a
mapping application. I think that hybridizing might offer the best of both
worlds. This approach would call for the use of frames ick... if the
flash is used for a navigation module. But if the navigation and content use
standards why not let the presentation use swfs?
