AJAX killing stream

Hello everyone, I've got a page that has an embedded internet radio stream (with Windows Media Player) that I want to keep running even as the user cycles through content on the page. So, I've set up a few XMLHttpRequests with AJAX and it works great in IE7 and Firefox. The content changes as the user clicks around and the stream plays uninterupted.

But in IE6, it is a different story. Everytime a new XMLHttpRequest is implemented, the stream stops and the user must hit play on WMP to get it to start back up. I'm not sure if it's a problem with the ActiveX control in IE6 or something else. If you have any suggestions, I'd be more than happy to hear them.

Cheers,
Roger Pride

Hi,


u can set Autoplay = "true" for <param ../> in <object>/<embed> tag
so user need not click for play it will automatically play when ajax request made (when recive response).

hope this would be help full.

Cheers.
