Not sure how deep this goes ( IE porting Actionscript over to JS )
If it does my world just got a lot easier.

You could just wrap ActionScript functions in JavaScript. It's the same language at heart.

Thats a good point however,
I've tried moving from AS to JS and let me tell you I could smell burning toast.
Also theres things about JS that are just so unstable compared to flash.

If this does what it proposes,
a lot of ppl will be very happy indeed.

The past few days I've been working with CoffeeScript. It's a really nice language that converts to JavaScript. It's so light weight, I may continue using this for anywhere I need JavaScript going forward.

Sounds interesting, any links?

I'm looking at Prototype

Yeah: <!-- m -->http://coffeescript.org/<!-- m -->

It compiles to JavaScript.

I found this on the prototype site.

var Person = Class.create({
  initialize: function(name) {
    this.name = name;
  },
  say: function(message) {
    return this.name + ': ' + message;
  }
});

It would look like this in CoffeeScript.

class Person
  constructor: (@name)

  say: (message) -> "#{@name}: #{message}"

With HTML you can add a few lines of code here and there and in general tweak things without breaking anything. Flash is harder to deal with though and you may be required to go back to your initial coder or find another one if you need to change something.

I purchased an upgraded Flash Pro CS6 and now the option to publish to glorious HTML 5.
Simply amazing for 90% of mobile/tablet ports ( the other 10% supported native flash obj)!
