Definition

  • Flash, an animation software product from Macromedia Inc., has emerged as the leading tool for creating interactive animations on the Web because of its ability to produce low-bandwidth, interactive animated images. Flash animations have grown tremendously popular in recent years, becoming the default standard after both Netscape and Microsoft agreed to include the Flash Player as a browser plug-in.
