Hi Kerry
They are shockwave safe, the only issue will be perhaps doing a preload of
the movie before displaying it to prevent headaches. Of course there is the
issue that prevents you from moving or dragging them outside of the
shockwave window itself which is something that you can or could do with a
MIAW, and you would have to write the drag code yourself of course. There
are other issues that are a bit of a headache such as no editable text and
such that will generally cause GPF's under Windoze if you attempt to use it.
Sincerely
Mark
