Subject: Re: DHTML Layer Problem in Netscape
The problem is in how netscape accesses objects in layers, which is
different from the microsoft/ie model.
For Netscape omething like
playerEmbed = document.layers.realLayer.embeds[0];
For IE, the model is different
playerEmbed = document.sample
then access it via,
playerEmbed.DoPlay()
I have found using the embeds array to be more reliable than the actual
name of the embed. BTW you will also have to deal with Netscape's
handling of a resize command with DHTML. After you get the player
working, try resizing the window. Be prepared for some interesting
placement of the embed objects. IE handles that a lot more gracefully.
Hope this helps,
David Andersen
