I am just wondering if there is a way to use Flash within ASP.NET (2005) Is
it possible have Flash content as a part of a webform? (as you can within
an HTML document)

It's important to realise that ASP.NET is, basically, a tool for generating
client-side markup and scripting. The clients' browsers don't really care
too much about what server-side application is squirting the HTML down to
them. If you create a webform in ASP.NET 2 with all the fancy webcontrols
you like, you'll see that they're all rendered as standard HTML by the time
they reach your browser.

So, you'd have Flash content as part of a webform in the just the same way
as you would in an HTML document, as they two really are the same thing as
far as the browser is concerned. You can see an example of the Wimpy
Shockwave/Flash player playing MP3s embedded in a webform here:

you'll see what I mean.
