ASPNetFlash

If you're an ASP.NET user and want to incorporate Flash into your web forms, ASPNetFlash could be the tool you need. With a variety of features, including the ability to remove the "Eolas" or "Click to activate and use this control" message in Internet Explorer and Opera browsers, as well as being 100% AJAX compatible, ASPNetFlash is designed with ease of use in mind.

One of the key strengths of ASPNetFlash is its ability to automatically detect the client's Flash plug-in version and display alternative HTML content where required. This is backed up by XHTML compliant, WAI compliant and search engine friendly code, which helps to ensure that your site is accessible and discoverable by as wide an audience as possible.

In addition to its core functionality, ASPNetFlash also provides an interface for DataBinding to Databases, XML sources, SiteMaps and ObjectDataSources, making it easy to integrate with a range of different data sources. There's also an integrated Runtime Flash Debugging Console, which can be a huge time saver when it comes to troubleshooting.

One of the most important aspects of any software tool is security, and ASPNetFlash has that well-covered too. All script and XHTML markup created by ASPNetFlash is encrypted, providing an extra layer of protection against unauthorized access to your Flash files.

Finally, ASPNetFlash has two optional APIs for complete integration, including a JavaScript API that allows you to control Flash using simple JavaScript, and an ActionScript API called ActionSpeak that enables Flash to call JavaScript and ASP.Net functions.

Overall, ASPNetFlash seems to be a solid choice for anyone looking to add Flash to their ASP.NET web forms. With its range of features and ease of use, it's an attractive proposition for developers of all skill levels.
