    How to code the 'Action Panel'...

    Morning

    Can you spare five minutes to give me a numpties overview of Flash vs jquery and Ajax?

    We’re building a new site and we have specced it to run a Flash file for the action panel (the main panel on the homepage which scrolls through different images and offers etc.

    However, I have since noticed that lots of sites are using jquery or Ajax for this (see www.mankind.com or www.maximuscle.com or www.lookfantastic.com) which I think is more search friendly and probably more accessible (although that gap has closed a lot with Flash now I think).

    For me to get the new website’s spec changed will probably incur a cost and I want to make sure it’s worthwhile before I do anything.

    What do you reckon?

    i wouldn't use flash

    Its not easy to update and any embedded text is invisible to SEO

    Use jquery or something which allows you to output offers as text as well as imagery
