I have embedded a quicktime file in my page using:

<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" WIDTH="321"HEIGHT="274" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.ca <PARAM name="SRC" VALUE="footage/curiosity2003.mov">
<PARAM name="AUTOPLAY" VALUE="true">
<PARAM name="CONTROLLER" VALUE="true">

<embed src="footage/curiosity2003.mov" width=321 height=274 autostart=true controller=true pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</embed>

</OBJECT>


The problem is that the movie loads entirely before appearing rather than allow you to watch the semi-downloaded part, which is what I was aiming for.

Can someone please point out what I am doing wrong, thanks.

The only way I know to do this is by exporitng it from quicktime pro. There is a option for "Fast Start - Compression Header" If this is checked the movie will start playing while it is being downloaded.
