Could someone verify whether they are able to view some of the videos on
www.foxnews.com
I used to be able to view them using 10.1 but at some point in time I think they made a change and the videos no longer work. The videos are called out by javascript and I think they are doing something non-standard (which naturally obviously only IE understands)

I have tried several distros, Firefox, Opera, Konqy etc... and nothing works. Sound comes through but no video.
I am running Flash 9 but 7 doesn't work either.

Thanks.

It works fine on my Mac with Seamonkey or Safari as the browser. I have no idea what video player it is using, but it must be a Seamonkey plugin, because another window opens up and the video runs up in the corner. No other player seems to be opening (like RealPlayer or Quick Time as often happens with a web-based video) so I'm guessing it is flash. The source of the webpage that pops up is full of references to various versions of flash. But that doesn't tell you anything about SuSE 10.1
