Hi everybody,


This is a question regarding SEO and Flash.

I've heard that Google Crawler and other search engine crawlers previously have had difficulties crawling text on websites that are built in flash. I've also heard that by fall 2008, Google Crawler actually learnt this, but there's still a lot of debate about it.

I was wondering if any of you knew this for certain? I know how the coding in .swf-files can make it hard for crawlers to access the content, but maybe if the text is made "Selectable" with the option in flash?


Thanks in advance,
