wwp@yahoogroups.com:
Is Microsoft/EOLAS patent dispute affecting hard coded HTML pages ?

Hello Forum,
I noticed that the source of the WWP pano's is anticipating about a patent dispute between
Microsoft/EOLAS (see the WWP source script at the bottom of this psoting).
My knowledge of server technology is "zero" so I wonder how this dispute is of any
importance when a pano is presented by a hard coded html page instead of a dynamic
content server as the one WWP uses.
Can I expect problems when Windows users are viewing my panos (made with OSX and
hosted on a OSX server) when I use my regular code:
--My HTML script-----------------------------------------------------------
<object classid=clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B codebase=http://
www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab height=440 width=700>
<param name=src value=QT_mediumsize01.mov>
<param name=controller value=false>
<param name=kioskmode value=true>
<embed pluginspage=http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
src=QT_mediumsize01.mov type=video/quicktime width=700 height=440
controller=false kioskmode=true>
</embed>
</object>
Should I change something to avoid viewing problems ?
Regards Wim.

Sorry, Javascript is now required for inline viewing of QT content<br>
due to the Microsoft/EOLAS patent dispute.<br>
