[thelist] Here's why flash is cool!

[Ryan Finley]

<<try doing this with dhtml:

   "IEXPLORE.exe has generated errors
    and will be closed by Windows.
    You will need to restart the
    program."

that doesn't happen that often with dhtml, but it does with flash.  this
happened on a powerful box setup for webdev.  i'd hate to think how many
"normal" web users experience fatal flash sites.

True, but I can think of easier ways to crash a user's computer...

for (i=0; i<10; i++) {
	document.write("write good standards-compliant code");
	document.write("run code on Netscape 6");
	document.write("CRASH!");
}
document.write("uninstall Netscape 6")

do while (netscape_marketing > netscape_engineering) {
	document.write("continue using IE");
	document.write("lead stress-free life");
}
