See now this is a pretty interesting little project that I'm surprised the usual culprits on the web haven't really talked about. Mike Davidson has just released sIFR 2.0: Rich Accessible Typography for the Masses. It's a smart little method to actually enhance your typography without killing accessibility.
A flash file is created, but not after it's jumped through a couple of hoops to make sure that the end user actually has the proper software to see the fantastic new and exciting typography.
What I'm most impressed about is just tight the entire package is. I love it when I download something and there's a handy manual in it. The code might be the most spectacular in the world, however because I can't make heads or tails of it, it's pretty useless to me.
I've been having soo much fun with designing Emmortel lately, that I've got this mini creative boost, and I'm itching for the next project I take on because I'd also really like to implement this method and a couple of others that I've been learning.
Did you try the source version of the JavaScript? ;-)
Hmm no not really, I've not had a chance to really play around with this, just downloaded it had a look at the documentation which was consise and answered my questions (good work on that I can't stress how important it is to have good documentation for something like this to take off).
I will write more when I start using it, and that's going to be happening relatively soonish :).
