Hi all,

This is killing me, I have made an iphone friendly website, however i am wanting to add a link (the link in an image) that points to a quicktime movie which i want to play on the iphone.

I know the iphone can play movies and i know you can add a link on a site to play a movie but I have no idea how. I have tried just linking the link to the .mov file with no successs (says iPhone cannot play movie format), i also looked on the web and found out you can convert the .mov to iphone formatted movie, but i dont get how to then have that linked by my image button?

any help would be great

thanks,

Giles
