I'm looking into a solution for work, where you have a two page spread of the book to preview. Either side of this, you can hover in the corner to create a pseudo-flip and then click the mouse button to actually turn the page. I know there is many Flash solutions out there, but in this case we cannot use it... So we are looking for a possible solution that can work across all major browsers (yes, including IE6)...

I looked a few canvas solutions, but with Google's canvas extension for IE, these will terribly slow. So was thinking about an SVG/VML solution, like Raphael Javascript library. This could be good, but then trying to look into how to code this, without examples, could be a challenge with the time constraint.

Is there a solution out there that fits (or almost fits) this problem?

A: 

How about the SVG Flip solution by Paul Brunt? It seems to do exactly what you ask for, using svg and javascript.

This is almost very great! ...I got excited to see the demo, tried it on IE and was happy to see it working there... But then realised I was looking at an example Flash on he links too - not the actual SVG example. I tried the SVG FLip on IE 6 + 7 and it just doesn't work... Thank you, but still looking...

Thanks for the link. There seems to be no real answer to this. But thanks anyhow.
