I'm developing a FREE movie website
( see: http://www.idriveinmovie.com )
The problem is that the rollover buttons on the web page won't function until the Quicktime movie file on the page is completely downloaded. This problem persists regardless of how the Quicktime files are exported when created.

Although the pages work fine with Safari and Explorer on the Mac, it does NOT in Firefox on the Mac or PC. It also does NOT work in Explorer on the PC.

I'm wondering if there's something specific with Firefox that I should be aware of in regards to coding the web pages. If anyone has any ideas I'd like to hear them. Thanks!

I suspect that its because your preload function is being called from body onload and the movie is in the body.

Thanks for your reply. If that's the reason, Is there an alternative way to code this page that would solve the issue? In other words, what's the alternative to using the preload command in the body tag?
