If I manually add it to the HTML page (actually type it in) the controller bar appears. If I use IE 8's developer tool it shows the param as <param name="controller" value="true"> though where the controller bar should appear there's sometimes a solid black rectangle or the area is transparent. If I change the 'scale' param it makes no difference. If I explicitly call document.getElementById([id for object]).SetControllerVisible(true); the controller appears. Googling claims there's a bug with the QT controller on 64 bit Vista (though I have 32 bit Vista). Andrew Poulos

I'd advise a try-catch too. You can't trust plug-ins. > > Googling claims there's a bug with the QT controller on 64 bit Vista > (though I have 32 bit Vista). > Googling claims lots of things. Next step, create it with standard DOM methods and see what happens.

I tried this in IE: var qt = document.createElement("object"); qt.classid = "clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"; qt.codebase = "http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"; qt.style.position = "absolute"; qt.style.left = "96px"; qt.style.top = "48px"; qt.style.width = "480px"; qt.style.height = "360px"; var par = document.createElement("param"); par.name = "src"; par.value = "sample.mov"; qt.appendChild(par); document.body.appendChild(qt); but all I got was the QT window with a question mark in it???
