I think we can all agree on this fundamental goal. But
making a player available freely and providing content
which is not html-ized does not contravene this
crucial principle. You cannot create xCard co

Ken,
Sorry for being so late on this topic, but last week has been
sort of hectic...
Anyway, thanks a lot for your suggestion.
I found the time to test it today : it works great but, like the other
