Online Media Player

[=?Utf-8?B?ZG5vcnJpcw==?=]

I have a custom application containing WMP and I'd like to create an "online"
version of it for use in websites. I believe that this used to be
accomplished with activex in VB 6. How would I go about recreating it for
use in websites like youtube, or other flash players? Do I have to go back
to VB 6?

Email me privately and I can show you how to do this with examples and a
private web site that I can show you as well using the code. I would think
it has everything you need.

Hi,

A Windows Forms Control can be used in IE; however, this will requires .NET
Framework installed at client-side.

To the OP:

If you decide to host the Window's Control from an ASP.NET website,
remember that you can detect which (if any) version of the framework
the client has using the Request.Browser object. This would allow you
to redirect them to the framework's download site if their version is
inadequate.

I would seriously worry about this Internet Explorer for Windows only
approach - what about user's using Firefox, Opera, or Safari?
Depending on your client base you may want to rethink your approach.

Thanks,

Seth Rowe
