This is how it's set up in my netscape and IIRC it worked First put into location bar: about:plugins See if you have "Netscape Default Plugin: /usr/lib/netscape/476/communicator/plugins/libnullplugin.so" You should, it's part of the default install, IIRC. This is probably needed to handle mime types. Then Goto: Netscape::Edit::Preferences, locate Category Navigator::Applications in the tree to the left. Now locate in the window to the right: Quicktime Video, click on Edit. If there is none, click on New. Then enter: Description: Quicktime Video MIMEType: video/quicktime Suffixes: qt,mov Click on "Handled by: Application": xanim +q '%s' Click OK, probably restart Good luck. If it doesn't work, please send me an URL where it should work, so I can try out if it does for me Good luck, M -- I did not vote for the Austrian government
