Thanks for your suggestion. I'm fairly new to jQuery, so I appreciate
some patience.
I assume that .html() and .append() are DOM functions, while .load()
uses innerHTML?
I tried to test things out this way (IE-only Object method):
<script src="thickbox/jquery-latest.pack.js" type="text/javascript"></
script>
<body>
<div>Above movie</div>
<div id='TB_movie'></div>
<div>Below movie</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var o = "<object
classid=\"clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B
\" codebase=\"http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab\"; width=
\"200\" height=\"100\"><param name=\"src\" value=\"serve/sample.mov\" /
><param name=\"controller\" value=\"true\" /><param name=\"autoplay\"
value=\"false\" /></object>";
// $("#TB_movie").append(o);
$("#TB_movie").html(o);
</script>
</body>
... but if you check the results:

... they're anything but what I'd expect.
Not only do I not get the control bar, but I also get the QuickTime
stuck in the top-left corner of the screen, though space is still
reserved for it in the appropriate place.
