I’ve been playing with Flex and Adobe Air for a while now, and I’ve wanted to test the abilities of the Air HTML component for future projects. So I built my own mini Air Web Browser.
During the Air beta the mx:HTML component didn’t do javascript very well, and it didn’t do flash at all, from what I could remember. I created a simple little browser with Adobe Flex Builder 3 and the latest Adobe Air SDK. It runs embedded Flash/swf great, and does well with javascript. I tested the javascript abilities with prototype and some custom functions. You’re more than welcome to play with it and make changes.

I personally use PowerMenu for making my windows transparent or always on top, if the application does not have a native solution for it.
