Hi, I'm a bit curious - why do you consider changing from WMV to Flash important for Linux or Firefox users? Last time I checked, most Linux distributions could play neither WMV nor Flash movies out of the box, but software to do both is available for free. Software to play WMV is even available as free software (e.g., mplayer)? Or am I missing something? I think we have a much, much, bigger problem with sites (the most notorious are the banks) which instead of using ordinary links and (if they must) standard Javascript, use IE-specific tricks. You can't get around these problems by installing any additional software... -- Nadav Har'El | Wednesday, Aug 27 2008, 26 Av 5768 [EMAIL PROTECTED] |----------------------------------------- Phone +972-523-790466, ICQ 13349191 |The trouble with being punctual is that http://nadav.harel.org.il |nobody is there to appreciate it. ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
