HTML in Flash

[SanDiego]

Do ANYONE know how to embed (more like frame) an HTML page into a flash SWF.

I am making an EXE/SWF flash Home Buying Program and I want to Frame my MLS into it but make it look like it's not just a regular old site popping up.. I want it to "inside" the SWF.. Anyone have thoughts on this?

Why not just code it in html?

Cause flash can be downloaded as an .exe program-ish looking file, or loaded onto a cd or mini-cd, and then placved into the installer i have. If i use html, I would either have to ask them all to get MS IE first or onstall it with that and many people won't like extra stuff like that to be required. Flash will work on ANYONE's computer.... It's basically for functionality and appearance.

What computer doesn't come with some sort of browser installed?

If it's plain html (ie no serverside) you should be able to put it on a cd and run it. Thats the premise that the computer magazines make with the CDs they distribute with the magazines.

Right, They should have A broswer but Specifically IE 5+ ... that works best with what I want to do.. if they have netscape, it will be as good as "just going online to the site" if they use IE5+ it looks like a fancy special program for them to search homes with (value added) and it will be worth the download. People will laugh if i have them download a program, install it, and start it to just go to a website...

that would be amusing. downloading a program to go to a website. hmmmmm, i would think though, that most of your customers would have ie 5+, what with automatic updates and such. And that your program would work for most of your customers. And you know, what if it doesn't work for some people, those people are still sent to your site, which is good, and honestly, they'd probably think there doing something wrong, and wouldn't blame you. lol.

I'll just tell them it was Seo Jason at REW that messed up their MLS cd I made for them and send them to you...

So I guess I'll go off and start on that little web project too.... I happen to have TOO many sites/thngs going on right now.. and yet, I am just NOW starting to get decent lead soff my sites....
Wait till I have to spend 20 hours a day selling real estate...LOL!

[SEO Jason]

selling real estate, hmmm, that's a novel concept. I thought you guys just spent your days posting on here.

[SanDiego]

and nights too... thats why I'm broke!

See, I build unique and fresh content for REW/ Morgan to help boost his reignning power of seo across the land...... because it makes me feel good inside. I like to help the cause...
