Subject: swf or html? 2004-03-03 - By Jesse Warden
Back HTML is best mainly because you have no control how the SWF is wired to the user's system. Some people's systems have SWF's play in the Flash Player, some in another browser other than the one they may be currently using, etc. Usually, if they have the Flash plugin installed, the SWF will play just fine in the window, however, if not, there is no error checking. HTML can at least define the needed plugin, and show the required security dialogues as well as other necessarey error checking while a SWF alone cannot.
BTW, there are pop-up blockers for a reason.

Hi there, question: if I produce pop-ups for the web - for example: just a browser window containing a picture - do I need to embed this pic in a html-window or can I pop up a swf? I had bad experience with html so I figured I could just pop up a swf-window. the browser says though that it needs a html - but then still opens the window. Is it just not elegant? should I stick to html? thanks Hannes
