Yep.

Well, it worked in firefox mostly. I couldn't get it to work in safari,
so I lost interest.

I looked at them, but didn't really get a chance to play around much

Well, I can't really judge that as I didn't get a chance to look for
long and I am more familiar with adobe stuff, and really am quite happy
with the adobe stuff.
I am sure it will be ok at some point, although at the moment it would
seem a bit hasty to use unless you really had a downer on flash, as
flash is actually more common than any browser.

Thanks for that. I agree with what you say. Some clients (who like Microsoft
stuff) are starting to ask questions about them.

I have had similar questions, which is why I looked. I put it down to a
thing for later.

Well, yes, It is sort of my job to keep track of various technologies,
so I can answer abstract questions at random times at work!
