Subject: RE: FLASH: Heavy text site in flash?

I am new to flash.

How do you do "Flash Ornaments." I don't need a full SWF on the page, I just
want some of the animation control. Is there a way to just do a few animated
graphics on the page? I don't have huge amounts of bandwidth.

Thanks ahead of time.

Could you just diplay some of the text with some graphics (a teaser) and
put the rest of the text, formatted exactly as you'd like it to print,
into a separate swf for printing? This seems to be one of the nice
benefits of the print sdk that is available (though I still haven't
gotten it to work--can't figure out how to get the wait loop to work
correctly).

Regards,
Helen
