Promlem with loading QT content in Safari into a div via innerHTML

Question

Hello,
I have created a website where I'm loading QT content into a div via Javascript by using InnerHTML. I'm generating the Object/embed with javascript. Take a look at the following javascript function:
//This function generates object/embed tags on the page
//each time a movie thumbnail is clicked
function showMovie(folder, previewUrl, movieUrl)
var content = new getObj('content');
var movieObj = new getObj('contentMovie');
if(BrowserDetect.browser == 'Safari')
//I added this bit becaus Safari kept on playing the previous movie
movieObj.obj.Stop();
content.obj.innerHTML = '';
var urlStart = "[(base_url)]" + folder + "/";
var qtUrl = movieUrl.split('../')[1];
qtUrl = urlStart + qtUrl;
var myQTObject = new QTObject(previewUrl.split('.')[0] + ".gif", "contentMovie", "489", "280");
myQTObject.altTxt = "Upgrade your Quicktime Player!";
myQTObject.addParam("name", "contentMovie");
myQTObject.addParam("href", movieUrl);
myQTObject.addParam("controller", "true");
myQTObject.addParam("scale", "tofit");
myQTObject.addParam("target", "myself");
myQTObject.addParam("autoplay", "true");
myQTObject.addParam("saveembedtags", "true");
myQTObject.addParam("enablejavasript", "true");
content.obj.innerHTML = myQTObject.getHTML();
As you can see I'm specifically checking to see if the browser is Safari, then I'm stopping the movie via javascript. It seems that Safari keeps all the movies in memory and somhow loads them on top of each other instead of disposing of them when the innerHTML is set to an empty string... this took care of one problem which was preventing Safari from playing multiple movies at once(somehow stacking on top of each other). However, the fastStart movies keep loading in the background so you could argue that Safari is leaking memory and loading movies in the background that should not be there.
Does anyone have a clue on how to fix this? Wouldn't you define this as a bug? I took a look at the QT javascript API and it seems to me that there is no command that tells the movie to stop loading or howto dispose of it. Maybe I can swap the movie URL via javascript if the browser is Safari, but I'd like to know if there is another way since I'm using a poster movie and I imagine it will complicate things. Anyway, you can test for your self on www.koggull.com/index.php, if you don't understand the problem. I suggest that you keep Activity Monitor open, then you can see how Safari eats up memory when browsing my website. All help would be greatly appreciated.
