For right now it's best to export in SWF4 format. There's a Macromedia

Flash 5 Asset Xtra in development but I'm not sure of the expected

completion date yet.


(If this is for Shockwave, then it will take additional time past release

to get a minimal installed base, but then it will shoot up quickly because

of the auto-update abilities built into the larger player.)


Tip: The single biggest support issue is usually when there's a very

complex browser-based SWF that tries to be ported to a new host... it's

usually easier to consider this as a Director movie that happens to use

Flash sprites, instead of as a Flash movie that happens to be playing today

in Director.
