Amy,

I am a bit late to the discussion, but thought that the WebAIM "Creating
Accessible Macromedia Flash Content" might come in handy for you.

recommendations?

Dear Web4Libbers:

Thank you very much for your insight on my Flash and AJAX questions!  I 
think we do want to learn the technologies and apply them as best we 
can, using Flash for a great interactive map so it's not an essential 
element of the website, but would be a great feature nonetheless.  If 
anyone could recommend a book on Flash, I have been eyeing up the 
"Macromedia Flash MX 2004 Game Design Demystified", and an AJAX book (I 
have heard of "AJAX in Action"), I would really appreciate any 
suggestions!  I am not sure if the Flash book is what I need in order to

create the application I described, so thank you in advance for any 
recommendations!

In peace,

Amy M Ostrom
