I cant do a simple banner animation in javascript. However i can do it in flash. Flash is far more simple and versatile. Allowing more people to do it. Which should make it more economically feasible. I think this is why flash grew so much. More options and a gui with more people offering it. If plugins and browsers play nicely i see no big deal in having a plugin. FOr mobile devices i have seen reports that flash is superior to javascript/html 5 (PCs not in safari browsers) on battery intensive stuff. but that also comes down to how well something is built. So i could go either way. Just drives me nuts how many people who can do simple flash stuff and 0 javascript are helping to push the idea flash is dead. There is no such argument and there is no reason for someone to even need to ask such a thing. Its just advertising done by a guy who thought his media player would be the number one player, and is pissed it wasnt.
