Is there anything special that needs to be done to add a link to an MPEG (video) file to a Web page? Would a standard A HREF work or is there more to it than that? Something in the header maybe? If I simply type the URL directly to the MPEG in my browser, the media player loads but then gives an error. The file itself plays just fine in the media player if loaded manually. Don

From my experince, the A HREF tag will be just fine. If you have the MPEG file stored in you're directory and call it, it should run fine... I have not failed; I merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
