[Phpmyadmin-devel] Flash menu with a plug-in detection

Devel : version 3.x hi list, i think is a good idea to make a Flash Menu. if a navigator don't support the flash plug-in, the flash detection will switch to a basic menu, and the user can change it into the preference... What do you think ? Michael Vergoz

Hi all,
i think is a good idea to make a Flash Menu. if a navigator don't support the flash plug-in, the flash detection will switch to a basic menu, and the user can change it into the preference...
What do you think ?
A Flash Menu in phpMyAdmin ? Humm. Is it very reasonable ? Note that, I am not against. But I just think that phpMyAdmin must stay a tool where the functional one must take precedence over the design. In my point of view :) Now, if it's optional, why not :) Regards, Armel. ................................................................

It isn't neceassarily a bad idea, but we have to do it right. Here's the thing: I run under Linux. Navigator/Mozilla under Linux doesn't have a Flash 5 plugin, only Flash 4. Everytime I go to a site that detects the Flash plugin it complains because I don't have Flash 5, and everytime I tell it to go ahead anyways the Flash works just fine. As long as the Flash menu only uses Flash 4 constructs we'll be fine, and we can tune the detection code for 4 or higher. -- Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams <ignacio@openservices.net>
