the movie from playing. I think I witnessed this when doing a movie that
started out hidden on the page. It loaded in an xml file and the delay was
always present when bringing the movie to the fore.
I really should look at the code again but I think I got around this by not
hiding the movie, then running a script directly below the movie to hide it.
If I'm right I think that got the movie started and the delay disapeared.
<div id="daMovie" style="visibility: visible;">
<movie....>
</div>
<script>
getElementById('daMovie').style = 'visibility: hidden';
</script>
Or something like that.
Any once else know for sure?

I don't believe setting the visibility of the flash movie to hidden
will stop the film playing... granted, then as long as the visitor has
the menu open, they'll be missing some of the movie... afaik there
aren't really any other options unfortunately.
