What is MovJs (Quicktime File Javascript)?

Many developers who try to display Quicktime files in webpages may find out that, because of browser compatibility (Internet Explorer v. Mozilla...a.k.a. the rest of the world), what should be a relatively simple task can turn out to be one huge pain in the rump! This situation is one where MovJs comes in. The MovJs (Quicktime File Javascript) is a cross browser script that can make displaying Quicktime files as simple as it should be. Internet Explorer and Mozilla etc. each require different ways of embedding quicktime files to display properly. MovJs simply tests to see which browser is being utilized and then it formats the display accordingly. MovJs also makes a user's browsing experience a seamless experience by eliminating those pesky dialogue boxes you might encounter with pesky browsers such as Internet Explorer 7 +.
