“I haven’t been on Flash since Flash 4″

Exactly, so S-T-F-U about something you clearly know nothing about. There are plenty accomplished coders in the Flash world, go check osflash.org you cretin. And while you’re at it have a look at actionscript 3 you loser. You might find it can do a lot more than animate little shapes like that piece of inconsequential tat i.e Mochikit.animator

MochiKit.Animator looks like Flash 5 work with AS 1. To say there are no good anmation packages in Flash is to show true ignorance. There plenty of good animation packages out ther Fuse is one. I think ajax is sweet, but it takes twice the code to do what flash does. Please read up before you start talking smack about something you don't know about. Flash is a great tool and macromedia deservers a pat on the back for it. . It changed the way we all look at the web. Javascript , Flash and Flex and what ever else..script its just another tool in the box learn it and love it.</p> Not to be rude! MochiKit.Animator looks like Flash 5 work with AS 1.

I'll be needing a new animation framework when I make the move anyway.</p> Well said.

The biggest is that Flash is a closed platform controlled by a single vendor. If Adobe does something screwy, I have no recourse. This drives away the veteran OSS programmers, which in turn means that there is a lack of inexperienced OSS programmers. As a result, most of the stuff you'll find in Flash is done by people with limited programming experience. This is changing now that people can build swfs without paying $400 to Adobe, but it'll take a while for a pool of nice software to develop.</p> <p>Thanks for your kind words about MochiKit.Animator, I'll finish it off one of these days. I actually found your site while looking for a MochiKit ActionScript port. I haven't been on Flash since Flash 4 because all the contracts I've had up to the current one forbid its use.</p> There are a lot of reasons.
