Given: http://www.webbytedd.com/bb/ice/ How can I play the movie inside the page instead of going to another page? I know that I could use phpclasses, but that seems an overkill. I think something like this -- $file_source = 'ice-fishing.mov'; $size = filesize($file_source,"",""); header('Pragma: public'); header('Last-Modified: '.gmdate('D, d M Y H:i:s').' GMT'); header('Cache-Control: must-revalidate, pre-check=0, post-check=0, max-age=0'); header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: none'); header("Content-type: video/quicktime"); header("Content-Length: " . $size); -- but it's falling short.

Something like this... <object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab#version=6,0,2,0" height="153" width="321"> <param name="src" value="ice-fishing.mov"> <param name="controller" value="true"> <param name="autoplay" value="true"> <embed src="ice-fishing.mov" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" controller="true" autoplay="true" height="153" width="321"> </object> I'm sure there are lots of tutorials on the web regarding the details - I just nicked this code from http://www.apple.com/trailers/fox/thesimpsonsmovie/trailer1_small.html -Stut

-Stut: That certainly works, -- http://www.webbytedd.com/bb/ice1/ -- but I was hoping for something in the php realm.

I'm confused. What do you mean by "inside the page"? If you mean the embedded full-page Quicktime player that you sometimes get, that's a browser configuration issue and you'll never be able to control it for everyone, if anyone. I'm not clear why you want a solution "in the php realm"? Use the right tool for the job and life becomes easier. -Stut -- http://stut.net/
