"works in director,not in browser" woes

hi josh,

I get a script error (-2147219502) when executing the line
tx=w1.newtexture(pbj.modelname, #fromcastmember,
member(obj.url))
but only when the movie is played with Shockwave 8, not with
Shockwave 
10, so the simplest fix would be to update your html to
force usage of 
Shockwave 10.

cheers,
valentin
