Yes, Firefox decides if the server supports byte ranges if it sends an "Accept-Ranges" HTTP header or if it responds with a partial content on a range request. I've only met one web server that does neither of these (thttp) so far. What web server are you using? Unfortunately I don't know of a more accurate way of determining support without making an extraneous request. _______________________________________________ dev-media mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/dev-media
