Movie Embed Issues

52 New Member
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.

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.

I have a number of (large) QuickTime movie files, each of them matched to a one-frame QuickTime movie poster of the same screen size and also to a much smaller JPEG thumb of the same image as the movie poster. I want to put the small thumbs into individual Table cells to serve...

Hello all - I was hoping I could appeal to the gurus out there as I've researched this issue and can't seem to get this Flash movie to load at all. Below is my javascript code that I use to detect the browser and then based on the success of loading the plugin either show the Flash movie (swf file) or show a jpeg. Any help is appreciated as I have adjusted the syntax of having nested script tags within each other without any success. ...

I asked this question some time ago, and I received a reply, but I never followed up on the suggestion. That's why I'm posting again... I'm trying to add a Macromedia Flash movie to my C# windows project so that I can use it as a screensaver. I was told that the easiest way would be to add a WebBrowser control to my Windows Form and then have it load the Flash movie, but I'm not sure how to do this. I have VS.Net 2005. Also, since I plan...

Hi, How do I "embed" a flash movie to a web page so that it will validate with the XHTML transitional W3 validator? Previously I tried the following which works well: <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="100%" height="100"> <param name="movie" value="swf/safer_central2.swf">

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
