Colin is right, it is the way the browser handles flv's. If you want the flv to behave like the swf, you need to embed the flv in a swf. If you want to provide a link to the page, I can have a look, and maybe drop the flv into a swf for you ;) Paul -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
