sqwigly,

I don't think it works that way.

When you open your web site file(s) you have already downloaded the data!

Better to set it up to allow the download of the file so it is run direct from the hard drive.

Cheers

If you want to take the time, you could convert your films to mpegs and post them in that format.  Your buddies can either right click the file and "save target as" or left click the file and it wil launch in their default mpeg player.

currently I dont know of a way to integrate the Aces High flim viewer into a web browser....and even if you could...they are going to have to download it to see it anyway....even streaming vedeo is being downloaded.

What are you trying to accomplish?

the goal is to be able to show training videos but i dont want the user to have to download the file to their computer then leave the sight and go run the video from their veiwer.id like them to be able to go from movie to movie without leaving the sight.kinda like yours.

well then its either flash (smaller files...but lots of time on your end creating it)...or wmv files....huge...but playable thru internet explorer
