I hear you, but in our market research almost a quarter of people couldn't
run something with flash, or would not bother to install or activate it,
thus instantly losing almost a quarter of our visitors. An interface in an
iframe is, AFAIK, far more compatible. Our site is also targeted at those
who do not often use the computer, so should work 'out of the box' on XP and
Mac. AFAIK, iframes do.
Appreciate your input.
