Thanks Mischa and Charlie. Yeah, it all comes down to client side. Charlie, it will be for all users, so I guess, since client requested it, they would have there browsers configured. I have it working from CF perspective and if something doesn't work, we could go in the direction of different file format.
Thanks for your suggestions. <Ajas Mohammed /> http://ajashadi.blogspot.com We cannot become what we need to be, remaining what we are. No matter what, find a way. Because thats what winners do. You can't improve what you don't measure. Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.
