Melch, :D what if try to make the game playable on either of the Flash
Player. As such, Kids with Gnash and who doesn't know how to install Adobe's
FP will get to play the game too. So the saving should be via internet (that
is if Gnash doesn't support 'shared objects')<BR><BR><BR>Regards.<BR><BR>Mj
