Thanks Aran. I was able to get it to the link to function just fine
in Safari on a MAC but not in Firefox. Which makes me think about
another problem... say the page loads in a system without Flash
installed so Quicktime gets enabled, now all my links wont be
compatible with the QT plugin. So my guess is that for every link I
will need it to send three possible functions as well. Is that
assumption correct? Is it possible to create a function that sends
different scripts based on the player plugin?
Thanks,
Jeff
