Yeah! When I first read the feature list for Flash 4, I was impressed, but couldn't think what we would really want to use it for. A Flash interface to Zope would be cool to hold us over until the Mozilla thing comes together :-)

I've done some work with Flash. I don't think I'd want to use it to edit my DTML :) Also, IE seems to cache things more vigorously when you use Flash's Get URL command. I've got a Flash navbar on my Zope site, and I find that the page is not always refreshed as I'd like. This could be because I have my pages masquerading as normal HTML to trick search engines... Flash *is* good for doing absolute positioning, but I'm not sure how well it would work for creating forms that are supposed to be printed. That's definitely *not* what Flash was designed for :) Kevin
