Thanks. Yeah I figured as much... I dread the idea because I don't
"speak" flash, but ok :-)
I'd like to contribute that to Wt once I do, if there's interest.
Although I'm still learning the toolkit, so that may take a while. Since
this is certainly bloat to 99% of users, I guess package it in a separate
lib wtmedia or something?
I imagine a very simple API... I'll put more thought into it and post
here. If either flash or js isn't available, it'd degrade to simply
doing nothing. Maybe try HTML5 before flash?
best,
Lalo Martins
