Thanks everyone for the commiseration regarding Director's poor HTML
support.  Too bad, too. I was pretty excited about it.  Thanks, too, for
the tip that Flash is no better (that was my next idea).  Short of using a
commercial (not free) web xtra or activeX, it looks like saving the HTML
with FileIO and opening it via goToNetPage("example.html") is a viable
option.  I just tried it here and it opened the file using my default
browser.  I'd really like to display the HTML in the projector, too,
though.   I'll keep at it.

Thanks again,
Mike
