Is Scala a plug-in like Macromedia Flash?

General FAQ Solution #1, Flash (last modified 11/05/2001):

Scala software is a complete multimedia environment used to run large networks of dynamic signage and interactive kiosks. So generally, Scala is not used as a plug-in. But our software is completely Internet compatible and certain versions of Scala can be used like a plug-in. iplay is routinely used for Internet slide-shows. iplay is a runtime player that can be launched by itself (eg: on a CD-ROM or hard disk) or within a browser. Content can appear full-screen, in a window, or embedded in a web page. iplay itself is not a plug-in; when used in a web page, an embedded Scala ActiveX object launches the player. But the content is played seamlessly along with other HTML text, graphics and objects. This environment is perfect for high-end, media-rich presentations where quality is important; for example, delivering digital photography presentations over the Internet. Content for iplay can be created with iplay studio or InfoChannel Designer, both available for online purchase.

The Scala Website requires that JavaScript (Active Scripting) be enabled.

Please go to Tools, Internet Options under the Menus. Select the Security Tab, then Custom Level button. Then click the Enable button under Scripting / Active Scripting. Hit OK, then OK again to exit requestors. You will know it's working when you see a "More" link in the links beneath the Tabs.

You can still use the website without changing this setting, but certain features will be disabled.
