Hello
I am praying that someone can help me. I am trying to inserv a few wmv files into my web page and am not having much luck, is there anyone here that can assist me or point me in the right direction. I have DWMX not the 04 version.

Here is the code if that will help.....
<p align="left"><font size="2" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="firstlatch.wmv">
<object classid="clsid:166B1BCA-3F9C-11CF-8075-444553540000" codebase="download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/director/sw.cab#version=8,5,0,0" name="shockwavesmall" width="25" height="25" id="shockwavesmall">
<param name="src" value="firstlatch.wmv">
<embed src="firstlatch.wmv" width="25" height="25" pluginspage="www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/" name="shockwavesmall"></embed></object>
</a><em>First Latch</em> </font>- <font size="1" face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">How
to achieve the "asymmetrical" latch. Shows some drinking
by the baby (see Third Latch for more obvious drinking), some nibbling.</font></p>

Many thanks!

WMV...Windows Media Video?

The code you show is for a Shockwave file.

Excuse my ignorance, but I think you're looking for other code to show your WMV file. I'd do a search on Microsoft/WindowMedia site for "WMV HTML embed code," or something along those lines. Otherwise, embed the WMV in a Shockwave file and the code you show would maybe work then.

Here's what I use:

&lt;embed SRC="video_library/video1.wmv" type="application/x-mplayer2" name="MediaPlayer" autostart="1" showcontrols="1" showstatusbar="1" autorewind="1" showdisplay="0"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;

Everything works fine on IE on PC.

Laying in bed, I Googled "WMV HTML code" and found a link for your WMV code (and other medias):

<b>Embedded Media HTML Generator</b> (by CIT): cit.ucsf.edu/embedmedia/ (this is an online code generator - just choose your media format, type in your desired parameters, and POOF! Free custom code to place into your X/HTML page(s).
