thanks....
Well, I had to try
As an alternative, if I:
1) posted variables to a script with curl
$ch = curl_init ("path2myScript/movieBuilder.php");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POST,1);
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS,
"mask=mask.gif&drag=drag.gif&movie=fonovisa.mov");
curl_setopt ($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
$buffer = curl_exec($ch); // execute the post
//echo $buffer;
curl_close ($ch);
}
2) write the 'src' attribute as './movieBuilder.php' with no variables
passed
$xml = <<<EOB
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?quicktime type="application/x-quicktime-media-link"?>
<embed
src="./movieBuilder.php"/>
EOB;
Would the movieBuilder.php file retain the POST'ed variables ? Or,
would they be lost in the void.
maybe this approach is silly?

It does work :)
How would I use CURL to POST the same variables to the
movieBuilder.php file WITHIN the 'src' attribute ?
You can't. Browsers make a GET request for the URL listed in the /src/
attribute, and there's nothing you can do about that. PHP doesn't have
anything to do with that /src/ attribute, it just prints it out and
the browser parses it.
On recent Mozilla browsers you can use XMLHTTPRequest to fetch a
base64-encoded stream of your data and write it to the src attribute
within a "data:" URI scheme, but that won't work on IE or many other
browsers.
