Flash & Interactive Media You have probably noticed that today a Web surfer sees less Flash rich websites on the Web — websites that rely heavily on SWF files. While Flash is to stay, the trend has been shifting towards utilizing Flash conservatively along with other new and modern Web technologies and solutions. Here are some updates (and background) on the latest developments of interactive technologies and solutions: AJAX is a new technology for interactivity Flash is no longer the only technology platform for creating interactivity. Newly developing AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) and HTML5 Web technologies are bringing in new ways to create animations and interactivity. AJAX brings dynamic data interactivity to Web pages in a deeper level. AJAX loads on a web page without having to reload the entire page each time when calling in action. Before AJAX, Flash was the only way to create interactivity without having to reload the web page each time. For instance, Flash used to be the only way to create interactive slideshows of images with transitional animation effects. Other option — before AJAX — was to create slideshows by loading images to unique html pages individually. The emerging AJAX technology has changed this: today slideshows can be coded with AJAX, for instance by utilizing a rich variety of customizable jQuery plug-ins (the most popular JavaScript library in use today). Dallas Web design company Interaria is very excited about AJAX and the rich open source movement by jQuery. We specialize in integrating interactive components with content management systems in order for our clients to be independently able to add and edit web content without any coding requirements. HTML5 is the new code platform for Web Video HTML5 doesn’t perhaps sound all that fancy but it is a new developing programming language that is the next major revision of the HTML standard. HTML5 incorporates new features such as a video playback and a drag-and-drop technology that have been previously dependent on third-party browser plug-ins such as Adobe Flash and Microsoft Silverlight. HTML5 video player especially will be useful for incorporating video to Apple iPhone and iPad that currently do not support Adobe Flash Player. Apple describes HTML5 as "open, reliable, highly secure, and efficient". This Apple’s endorsement doesn’t sound so sweet for Adobe, the maker of the Flash Player at the moment. Shifting towards interactivity and animations developed by HTML5 and CSS3 codes Apple decision not to support the Flash Player in their iPhones and iPads has contributed the rapid development of new technologies such as HTML5 codem HTML5 animation programs (Adobe Edge, Google’s Swiffy) and CSS3. • More Information about Interaria / Request a Website Design & Development Quote for Your Project Please call 214-909-3900 or send a message to |
