I want to write a 3D virtual environment in c++ that can display videos on sides of a cube (using openGL is preferable). Also it has multi client and connect to the server that has a database of videos. the program should work online and can be displayed in web browsers. The question is: is it possible to do this by cpp and openGL or shall I use java applets or flash instead?

To be compatible with browsers, you'd probably have to go beyond C++.

but couldn't c++ web applications be runnable on browsers? and if so, do they support videos? if not, 3d programming is possible with flash (I have no idea about flash and web programming!)

Not unless you created somesort-of compatibility/communication layer between them, like a plug-in.
