VAriable sand quick time??

[Sarah]

2 separate problems come to mind:
Why does the file have an extension .txt if it is a movie file?
You are getting the contents of the file with the "get URL" line and 
then setting a filename to the contents rather than the name.

Use "answer file" to get the exact format of the file name. Then use 
that info in your menupick handler to generate the same format as 
returned by  the answer file. Instead of get URL, try:
	put "data/" & which_one & "_info.mov" into theFile -- fix this so 
it is a correct file path
	set the filename of player "qtplay" to theFile

Cheers,
Sarah
