It's a real mess...no doubt. Like Bret said in another post, this affects all Active X so it's not specific to flash. Many a frontpage website is having nightmares alone. Better to stand back...stick to coding what we know....deal with a workaround if our flash is on a production server and try to let the big boys work it out. Bob holding back on html export schemes is smart and thankfully others will eventually end this problem. It's the talk of the town as you all know. Someday we'll all be laughing looking back....I hope.
