Creating web based word searchs

[Quackers]

Anybody know any tools out there for creating word searchs that run in web browsers instead of printing them off? We want some for our VLE, but all the ones i find are for printing out.

Off the top of my head you could do this in Flash, create a grid with some hot areas? Get the kids to click on each letter when they find a word then it turns a different colour?
