Can anyone comment on how one might handle non image/movie/text media types? Since 1994 we have been handling chemical models via a class of MIME types chemical/foo (yes, I know the ratification was never completed by IETF, but we did try!). These can be resolved via a range of browser plugins (Chime, Chem3D). These data types were subsequently also processed by <applet> and most recently by expression as XML/XSL. To get "chemistry" to our audience, we <embed> (or <object>) data with our movies; see http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/video/rees/. I am wondering what the correct approach is to integrate this with SMIL. I dont think its possible at V1.0. Might it be so with the Boston SMIL specifications? -- Henry Rzepa. +44 (0)20 7594 5774 (Office) +44 (0)20 7594 5804 (Fax) Dept.
