Re: I'm old and forgetful!

John and Jester:


Thanks so much for answering, but its not the answer I wanted to hear!

:(


Actually, I thought someone had posted that they'd found a bug and you

could place the avi as a graphic, or something like that and it would

still play... oh well, I'm probably just misremembering... (its a real

bummer to get old an senile <g>!)


...too bad they have the options section of the avi sort of misleading

when it says 'play on client'... sort of makes you wish it would work

that way <vbg>.


I *do* have another question though... is it possible to have a swf

made into a projector file, and then have the movie open a browser?

I'm talking about a 'stand-alone' executable movie brought up on a

desktop and executed. This would play a short intro and then bring

up a menu where folks could select different areas of an intranet

site. When they make their selection the movie would start a browser

up for them and take them to the site. Any way to do that? I've tried

a couple of simple tests, but unless I'm missing something, it doesn't

seem to work. ...it'd be cool though huh?
