This really isn't an ASP question, but the code is ASP so feel free to move this to the right place if necessary. I have two ASP pages with some embed code on them on two different hosting platforms.

First one (Win2003,IIS)

dim var1

var1 = "<object>"_
& "<param name='movie' value='st1.mov'>"_
& "<embed src='st1.mov' width='725' height='150'>"_
& "</embed>"_
& "</object>"_

response.write(var1)

Second one (WinXP,IIS)

dim var1

var1 = "<object>"_
& "<param name='movie' value='st1.mov'>"_
& "<embed src='st1.mov' width='725' height='150'>"_
& "</embed>"_
& "</object>"_

response.write(var1)

So, same code on two different platforms, the problem is the one on the Win2003 works just fine, but the code on the WinXP doesn't. All I get is the quicktime logo and a white check mark. Is it something simple I'm missing? Quicktime is installed on the XP box and the mime setting are correct. Any help would be great.

re: Movie Embed Issues


repost in the HTML forum, and post the code as it appears in HTML (in the browser -> view source)

It actually sounds to me like you might have different browser versions, and the best solution is to use the best-supported code.
