<video src="foo.ogg"> fallback content </video> On a browser that doesn't support video this will use the fallback content (OBJECT, etc) to instantiate something that can play the Ogg file. On a browser that supports video and Ogg it will play the video. On a browser that supports video but not Ogg, how do you then instantiate a fallback that can play the Ogg file. Without JavaScript and without providing an alternative source re-encoded in a different format. Chris. -- http://www.bluishcoder.co.nz
