Have you ever had a client that wanted the flash effect, but did not want the flash? If so, then jQuery is right up your ally. jQuery is a technology that simplifies HTML document traversing, event handling, animation, and AJAX interactions. jQuery is basically a free, open-sourced Javascript library that emphasizes interaction between Javascript and HTML.
Even though jQuery is not flash-based, it has the looks of a flash document. You can easily fake the flash with a jQuery plugin, and your visitors will not know the difference, unless they are savvy enough to view your source. This can help with people who do not use flash, but since it is a Javascript plugin you may still be effected by people that have Javascript turned off. It's your call.
