We already know the huge gap thats been created by Apple not adopting “Flash” to run on there device. The end users and developer pay the toll as they have to adapt to this scenario and live with the limitation of either viewing their content in different visual component OR come up with a solution that works both for Flash enabled device and non Flash device like apple iPhone and iPad.
I am happy to announce that Folks at Amcharts are doing an awesome task for bridging the gap between flash users and non flash users by providing a charing component for both kinds of devices.
Now you can seamlessly view our data on both the device by using their FLASH/FLEX component or their JAVASCRIPT charting components.
How can this be done?
Use the HTML wrapper to decide if the device can handle flash or not. (can be done even with JS) Once you know what device you are running you can choose which kind of component to load. This gives you a seamless solution for your Business and YES it will support the normal flashbased platform as well as NON flash platforms
Important to note: you will have to follow the conventional MVC model to achieve. Keep VIEW and DATA separate.

Thanks for coming up with this solution. You guys at AmCharts ROCK!!
what u mean to say is – now we ‘ll not see a red cross in our browsers if the device does not support flash? who cares about the data…it is killing the fun that flash provides anyway…
If html/javascript is supporting flash like charts, and if we are using a flash chart as option, why should we need to invest the money on two versions.. why can’t we just go for JS version !!! are they filling the gap or reducing the dependency… :D
Excellent way of describing, and nice article to obtain data regarding my presentation topic, which i am going to convey in college.
