Re: Launch Applications with HTML?

Just put a link to the movie in in an EMBED or OBJECT (this one is better) tag. It should work in any browser, especially if you nest the tags (put EMBED inside OBJECT, just like Flash files). A better idea is to simply provide a link to the file. Movies take time to download, so its better to make it up to the user to decide. By the way, you can put video in Flash files (Flash MX and up). The compression is excellent, and everyone has the plugin. You can easily convert your mpegs to flash.
