This is a multi-part message in MIME format. --------------1D34C8D1E8E40E0A592211B4 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Thank you, Kevin, Pina, et al, for your level-headed responses. I already had v7 of Media Player installed and was puzzled. Kevin, as soon as I read your message, I tried MS IE instead of my default Netscape. Everything works fine in IE. However, beware, this is what happens when the 2,000 lb. gorilla from Redmond throws his weight around. I'm told (I'm not a techie) that the scripting is MS non-standard and that is why it does not work in Netscape but does work in IE. I have run into this before with web page HTML. In any event, thanks, folks. Tom Baley Metcalfe Kevin J COCA wrote: > There seems to be something about the link that will only work with IE and > not Netscape.
