movie player problems, ... HELP ME! Options

[xstace]

I used the code for movie player:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><OBJECT id=Player classid=clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6><PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="rate" VALUE="1"><PARAM NAME="balance" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="currentPosition" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="defaultFrame" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="playCount" VALUE="1"><PARAM NAME="autoStart" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="currentMarker" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="invokeURLs" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="baseURL" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="volume" VALUE="50"><PARAM NAME="mute" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="uiMode" VALUE="full"><PARAM NAME="stretchToFit" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="windowlessVideo" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="enabled" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="enableContextMenu" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="fullScreen" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="SAMIStyle" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="SAMILang" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="SAMIFilename" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="captioningID" VALUE=""></OBJECT><!--<br />function StartMeUp1()<br />{<br /> Player.URL = "http://www.ffmoonlight.net/video/ffx2/1000%20words%20concert.WMV"<br />}<br />--><br /><FORM><INPUT onclick=JavaScript:StartMeUp2() type=button value="1000 words" name=BtnPlay> </FORM><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

and it works when I place it in the header. I would like to place the movie player now in an entry but it doesn't seem to work. What should I do?

did u check the 'edit html' box FIRST before pasting the code in?

Yes, I did but it still doesn't work and I have no idea what's wrong.

Your script should be like this:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- begin code provided by createblog.com --><br /><OBJECT id=Player classid=clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6><PARAM NAME="URL" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="rate" VALUE="1"><PARAM NAME="balance" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="currentPosition" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="defaultFrame" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="playCount" VALUE="1"><PARAM NAME="autoStart" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="currentMarker" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="invokeURLs" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="baseURL" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="volume" VALUE="50"><PARAM NAME="mute" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="uiMode" VALUE="full"><PARAM NAME="stretchToFit" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="windowlessVideo" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="enabled" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="enableContextMenu" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="fullScreen" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="SAMIStyle" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="SAMILang" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="SAMIFilename" VALUE=""><PARAM NAME="captioningID" VALUE=""></OBJECT><br /><script LANGUAGE="JavaScript"><br /><!--<br />function StartMeUp1()<br />{<br /> Player.URL = "http://www.ffmoonlight.net/video/ffx2/1000%20words%20concert.WMV"<br />}<br />--><br /></script><br /><FORM><INPUT onclick=JavaScript:StartMeUp1() type=button value="1000 words" name=BtnPlay> </FORM><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com --><br /><!-- end code provided by createblog.com -->

Missing <script LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> for the function, and the button "onclick=java script:StartMeUp2()" should be "onclick=java script:StartMeUp1()".
Try it
