You can tell the QuickTime browser plugin to apply the current parameter values to a new movie by setting SaveEmbedTags=True . This causes a movie specified in an HREF parameter, for example, to behave like a movie loaded using the QTNEXT parameter -- it inherits the current parameter values instead of being reset to the default values.
<EMBED SRC=ClickMe.mov HEIGHT=240 WIDTH=320 AUTOPLAY=True CONTROLLER=False LOOP=True HREF=YouClickedIt.mov TARGET=myself SAVEEMBEDTAGS=True >
This example would cause the plugin to autoplay ClickMe.mov in an endless loop with no controller. If the viewer clicked inside the movie's display area, the plugin would load YouClickedIt.mov , which would also autoplay in a loop with no controller.
Like the values inherited through use of the QTNEXT parameter, the parameter values set using this method take precedence over any values embedded in the new movie using Plugin Helper or set by user preferences. You can change this using the new AllowEmbedTagOverrides parameter.
