Re: Can Smile files launch web pages?

This can be done in two ways...

First would be to use SMIL/RealPix to synchronize your images with the video.  Instead of having your slides embedded in html pages, you'd let the RealPlayer display them directly.  The RealNetworks Content Production guide in the Documentation section at http://www.realnetworks.com/devzone teaches how to do this.

Second would be to use RealPlayer Events embedded directly in your media stream to "flip" the URLs to your html pages at another frame.  There's a tutorial on this at  http://www.streamingmedia.com/tutorials/view.asp?tutorial_id=130

Gook luck!
