Sure, but I seriously doubt anyone actually at CNN knows anything about this site page or how to change it. I would think that it was designed for them by a contractor. It was a beta site until last Saturday and Independence Day was Wednesday. The first time I had problems with the videos was on Tuesday evening. So it has not, this problem for Linux users, existed for very long. This is not the first time that I have seen something like this. I used to use an application years ago named Junkbuster to spoof sites that would only accept Windows browsers. My bank was one of them. BTW it is a setting in the Linux Firefox that causes this, the way Firefox identifies itself. The Windows Firefox, same version, works just fine. -- David
