Changing the styling would be done in the SWF file, and yes, you could mimic the link focus styling in any browser, but you can't easily make it different when it appears in different browsers. Making the focused state appear with a dotted line just requires some design work in Flash Authoring.

Hi Andrew,

I'm using Firefox 3.0.13 and forgive my stupidity, but it does work ... I
just had javascript turned off and assumed it was on because I could still
see the Flash object.

I really like how the Flash object highlights when it is entered now ... is
there a way to change the styling of the Flash focus? As that would be
really handy for ensuring consistent styling with other focus links.

Steven
