I am streaming some files on my site (progressive http streaming),
I use php to authenticate logged in users with sessions and cookies,
and then send the stream to be opened.
All my Quicktime and Real players files are working absolutely fine in all browsers,
but the problem is, when it comes to Windows Media Player and Firefox,
it doesn't seem to work,
what I think it is the problem, that windows media player doesn't seem to use the browsers sessions/cookies,
and so requests the files like if it was requested outside the browser and therefor fails to show the stream,
Windows media player works fine in Internet Explorer,
so it must be microsoft not wanting it to be compatible with firefox,
I wonder if there would be any workarounds,
my users can't see any files that requeires windows media player.

Media Player needs the correct classid= number and <object> to do this. IE is part of the OS so other modern browsers need pointers to accessing the player. Search in the html/css forum for the markup to let firefox do this in a recent thread.
