QuickTime 4.1 & JavaScript for QT Plugin
From Josh Stewart, "Just though I'd pass along a little info I ran across today. Apple has posted the preliminary QT 4.1 documentation here. Within this PDF is an entire chapter on JavaScript support. I can't believe
Apple didn't talk this new feature up more. This is something a lot of web
developers have been begging for (Windows Media Player has had this for a
while). Up to this point the only way to control a movie embed in a web page
was through a wired QT movie. This required a program like Live Stage and
was not easily updatable. As a web developer this feature alone is worth an
upgrade to 4.1. I guess Apple has gotten so consumer oriented that it has
left it up to developers to find out for themselves what new features Apple
products have that will benefit their development efforts."
