Nutrox, from what I read in this thread:
http://www.eweek.com/c/a/Enterprise-...-Flash-Search/
It seems that server side and dynamic information will be searchable, at least this article made it sound like that was the case:
"So what does that mean? We are giving a special, search-engine optimized Flash Player to Yahoo and Google, which is going to help them crawl through every bit of your SWF file. This Flash Player will act just like a person would in some cases. It will click on your buttons, it will move through the states of your application, get data from the server when your application normally would, and it will capture all of the text and data that you’ve got inside of your Flash-based application. We’ve basically provided a very powerful looking glass into SWF files so Google and Yahoo can pull out meaningful information."
