Hi I'm Currently developing a database with Filemaker that will store image, sound and video files which will then be viewed via a browser.

I have Filemaker 9 Advanced and Filemaker Server 7 Advanced.

The problem that i'm having is I have a form which displays information on a video file such as Name, date and type etc. I also have a Container field that has .MOV file inserted inside. When I Publish the form with Instant Web Publishing and then view the form I cannot view the .MOV file. The Container field is just blank.

Is it not possible to view .MOV containers with IWP? I can view the movie fine within the form when I use a Filemaker 8 or 9 client.

I would be grateful for any help with this problem.

Have you checked the IWP guide?

Here's a clue...

Working with graphics, sounds, and movies on the web

When you publish a database on the web with Instant Web Publishing, web users can work with data in

container fields in limited ways:

1 Web users can’t play sounds or display OLE objects in a container field—a graphic is displayed instead.

1 Web users can’t add graphics, sounds, or movies to a container field.

Important Images can either be stored inside the database itself or, for best performance, stored as file

reference using a relative path. If you’re hosting the database with FileMaker Pro, referenced image and

movie files must be stored in the Web folder, in the FileMaker Pro folder.

Incidentally, get the FMS7 upgraded - it's bug ridden to hell, and you may expect to be using FMP9 features that FMS7 can't provide.
