Hi Marc,

Opera usually uses the Netscape plugin, however, I haven't checked this

recently for Flash Player. I've used every version of Opera 8 up until

the last (8.54) before version 9 came out and none of them needed click

activation. But on to the important issue! The address is

http://www.caveboy.com.au/test/loadtest4.html It's still under

construction which is why it's in the /test/ directory so if a couple of

things don't work in the movie you can either ignore them or tell me

what doesn't work so I can debug it :) If you can work out why it

doesn't show first time I would be very grateful!

Cheers

Daniel
