           Summary: BBC News Player not opening requested video
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 417.x
          Platform: Macintosh
               URL: http://news.bbc.co.uk/

            Status: UNCONFIRMED

Hello.

If you go to the BBC News' webpage (http://news.bbc.co.uk/) and look to the
lower right of the screen. 

Under the title in white and red: BBC NEWS: VIDEO AND AUDIO with links to the
video available. E.g. 'Drought crisis threatens many Somalians' with a little
picture

Click on either the picture, text ('Drought crisis threatens many Somalians')
or grey button with 'video' on it.

It should then open a window entitled 'BBC News Player'. What should happen is
that it opens the video requested but it does not (ie it only opens the BBC
News three second intro screen, not the drought crisis video). Try it again:
close the BBC News Player window and click on something else: picture, text or
grey video button. Doing this repeatedly sometimes makes it work (or if it
worked first time try another link).

I found this bug to be repeatable in Mac OS X 10.3, Safari webcore 312.3 as
well as 417.8

The bug does not occur however, on Firefox 1.5.0.1.

Hope you can fix it okay.
