Java is for dinosaurs. Flash for the win! You can make pretty loading bars, *super* snazzy interfaces, and it's easy to use. Also, it can easily play sound (which the javascript notebook will probably not be capable of, ever). Flash has much better cross-platform support; it's a true web technology. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ To post to this group, send email to sage-devel@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] For more options, visit this group at http://groups.google.com/group/sage-devel URLs: http://sage.scipy.org/sage/ and http://modular.math.washington.edu/sage/ -~----------~----~----~----~------~----~------~--~---
