- nikcub 15y agothere are a number of projects that fix this. explorercanvas from google, which can be autoinstalled and doesn't require admin. then you have the SWF converters, and the live shims. IE not implementing the tag isn't a big deal, since they expose the drawing (directx) interfaces anyway I got a press release yesterday that said jquery was now more common than flash across the top websites. the 'flash is everywhere' argument is a bit 2004 and isn't true anymore . javascript is everywhere

Of course JavaScript is everywhere- it always has been, because it comes with browsers. The point is that Flash is also everywhere, because everyone has it installed.
- nl 15y agoexplorercanvas from google, which can be autoinstalled and doesn't require admin I think you mean Chrome frame here? explorercanvas is an implementation of Canvas on top of SVG for IE.
- nikcub 15y agoThat is what I meant, couldn't edit to fix the mistake
- gbog 15y agoYour flash games won't work on most phones, though.
- tyleregeto 15y agoYou mean they won't work on iOS phones, that's like 2% of the web browsing market. Not to mention iOS HTML5 support is shit.
- technomancy 15y agoJust because Flash is available for Android phones doesn't mean people have it installed.
- robin_reala 15y agoIE9 implements hardware accelerated canvas (and is as fast as Chrome in my tests).
