What's New?
This page was originally a Flash page written in ActionScript 2 and then AS 3. The ActionScript code loaded a text file containing recent site updates onto this page.
The code also allowed the user to format the font and font size of the output, and could even save these settings by use of Local Shared Objects (aka: "Flash cookies").
Since Flash is no longer supported, this page has been re-written. All update text here is in ordinary HTML code.
Recent updates to CHOU-SEH-FU.COM:

Feb 1/2021 The original version of this website mostly consisted of web pages animated with Flash and ActionScript.
However, since Adobe's Flash Player was discontinued on December 31, 2020, this site's SWF files are no longer viewable. (And indeed, have not been viewable on most browsers for a few years now.)
Therefore, the majority of these Flash pages will be deleted. A few will be converted to static HTML plus JavaScript.
Additionally on this date, this site changed web hosts (from GoDaddy to InMotion Hosting), and was converted to the HTTPS protocol. So, images & links on all the pages will need to be changed from HTTP.
Finally, the site's design will be converted from fixed pixel width to responsive. This will also take some time.
Going forward, CHOU-SEH-FU.COM will be used to practice WordPress and a little JavaScript.
