The solution of many problems of compatibility between browsers. Flash works identically as in Internet Explorer and in Netscape Navigator.
Powerful programming language ActionScript, which supports events, conditions, loops, arrays, functions, and derived classes. This language is very similar to JavaScript.
Beauty. Flash has automatic support for smoothing circuits using the mixing of neighboring colors (antialiasing). Designers know how important it is.
Convenience. Create Web-pages in Flash under force even to the beginner. It is only in the imagination and artistic taste.
The prevalence. Flash becomes a de facto standard. In cases where the necessary interactivity, a lot of graphics, animation, sound, and a small amount of files, Flash is irreplaceable.
Security. If you write a program in the environment of Flash, it is sure that no one gets to its source code. Flash can be used to publish texts which can’t be copied.
Cons, even cons and disadvantages include the fact that not all visitors to sites like the animation. Many visitors annoying animation.
Bots (both domestic and foreign), as a rule, do not index flash. The text inside the flash, in these cases will not be indexed and submitted to the search engine database. Thus, the main task that confronts site (profit), the use of flash is not solved, because the rankings obviously can’t be high.

Disabling flash difficult software company Microsoft, are part of Windows, using your browser. Software, which developed flash-sites are not fully compatible with all browsers c. The disadvantage of the connection (or complete incompatibility) flash-technology with other programming languages.
