class=450380809-10032010>If there are a number of sound or movie files with
different audio levels then having one global sound control will not solve the
problem of having to adjust the sound each time you play one of the movies. I
don't know whether there is any way to pass a parameter to the swf that plays
the movies to adjust the initial sound level either louder than default or lower
than a default volume, though that could get complicated.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

then anyone not using the default interface will have to also introduce a volume
control into their interface.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

control bar that is displayed when a movie or sound file is played, then this
would ensure that it was available even when the default interface was not used.
The snag here is that it would not be available for swfs where Interactivity was
set to Native swf.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
