I know the customer is always right and all that, but just who is their
target market and will they really want an off the wall effect like this?
- every time they go to the site?

I often feel that, as the "experts" we should advise the client when what
they want doesn't match what they need, is this one of those cases?

Why would they prefer javascript over flash?

Anyway, solutions - have you thought about using transition effects? (IE
only I think , but might be what your client wants?) - very powerpoint....
