FLASH: to use flash or not!!???!?!?

[Sean JC Lancaster]

i am currently building a cd-rom using html, javascript and flash (i am

thinking of including netscape with their permission-then there would be

no pluggin to install). the thrust of this piece of software is to use

about 75-100 (1 mb) quicktime movies to have kids with mild disabilities

teach their peers to use self-advocacy skills. i am only using flash for

the navigation buttons and section introductions (there are 6 sections and

i think flash can make these introductions seem more professional than

regular gifs or plain html). i am just wondering if maybe i am too

wrapped-up in flash. do i really need to use it? i could use javascript

with roll-over for the navigation and i could export flash to quicktime

for the introductions. i just want to know if i appear to only be using

flash because i like it and it is new to me.

to see a sample (netscape users only - i took out the code for IE because

the movie was extremely small???) go to:

i have disabled the button actions. thanks for any feedback, flashers.


p.s. i am using this to do a study on whether kids can learn a strategy

from each other on cd-rom as well as they do from their teacher (who

usually don't have time to teach the strategy).
