RE: FLASH: Re:

[J]

John,


Your first reply was the answer for me as this is a closed kiosk that we 

have complete control relative to the box, touchscreen and OS. Fortunately 

we are using IE4.+ which is kind to the JavaScript you suggested and also 

allows movie transparency! That was a good day for me!


Cross compatibility being a must on the web, I hope others use your second 

method..


Thanks again,

Life is good
