Hi,

I just thought i would post this before I head off to bed… hopefully I would have a couple of replies by the morning.

How exactly is IE7 and the way the browser will handle ActiveX controls impact on the way Flash websites is deployed to the web?

What are the changes we as developers suppose to make to our web applications run seamless? I think what is suppose to happen is that there will be a pop up notifing the user to click to run the embeddded flash object, or Applet? How do we avoid that?

Cheers gang.

This whole thing is rather dumb if you ask me.
