Flash on iPhone Now Avaliable!
Friday, January 15th, 2010
Well, sort of. Tobias Schnieder has developed Gordon, a Flash runtime written entirely in JavaScript and HTML5. This means Flash movies will work in any modern browser (including iPhone Safari), and there is no need for the Flash plug-in to be installed! It only requires a small snippet of code to be placed on a page.
At this point, most Flash movies are probably still too CPU-intensive for iPhone. That is the only reason why iPhone doesn’t already support Flash in the first place. Despite that, Gordon is a nice resource to have absent anything else. There are no docs for Gordon at this point, but Gordon is getting widespread Internet attention and seems to be getting rapidly updated with new demos.
