Ruby on Rails Saturday, January 1, 2011

I have the following HAML code

ul{ 'id' => tutorials_ul }
%li
%a{'href' => '/videos/create-command-001.swf'}
'Edition swf'
%li
%a{'href' => '/videos/create-command-001.flv'}
'Edition flv'

When the user clicks on 'Edition swf' the video plays nicely in
both FireFox and IE8. The video replaces the contents of the webpage.
Clicking the back button restores the webpage. This is exactly the
behavior I want.

When the user clicks on 'Edition flv' all that happens is that the video
downloads (without asking!) without playing.

How can I get the flv to behave like the swf?

I have found
https://github.com/nazar/jw-playr-hlpr
and downloaded and installed the plugin.

This gets me close ... but it embeds the video rather than doing what
swf does.

I guess I could create new webpages ... but I prefer the way
%a{'href' => '/videos/create-command-001.swf'}
'Edition swf'
does it.
