Hi all,
For the latest addition to my website, I'm adding an embedded WMV file to a new "videos" page. When I test-run the page, WMP will not run when I open the page in Firefox, but the page works fine in IE. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Michael
Try this code from A List Apart (http://www.alistapart.com/articles/byebyeembed). Notice, there are four places where you need to insert the path to the video.
<object classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" id="player" width="320" height="260">
<param name="url" value="video.wmv">
<param name="src" value="video.wmv">
<param name="showcontrols" value="true">
<param name="autostart" value="false">
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="video/x-ms-wmv" data="video.wmv" width="320" height="260">
<param name="src" value="video.wmv">
<param name="autostart" value="false">
<param name="controller" value="true">
</object>
<!--<![endif]-->
</object>
