Problem embedding .wmv

[Zappa]

Hey,

I'm having problem trying to embed a .wmv file in the content. Everytime I try putting in the code, FCKeditor keeps removing the tags but keeps the tags. The videos only seem to only play on Internet Explorer too.

Code: Select all

<p><object width="280" height="256" classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" standby="Loading Microsoft Windows® Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsm p2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701" id="MediaPlayer1">
<param name="fileName" value="/downloads/media/video-1.wmv" />
<param name="animationatStart" value="true" />
<param name="transparentatStart" value="true" />
<param name="autoStart" value="true" />
<param name="showControls" value="true" />
<param name="Volume" value="-450" /></object></p>

(Using cms 1.0.7)

Thanks,
Ryan

Ryan,

what if you switch to NO editor in user preferences and than change the code, or go to TinyMCE as editor. I've noticed the behaviour on plain text as well in 1.0.7.

Hi Ronny,

I've just tried installing tinyMCE and it isn't working. Everything has installed with no error messages however when I go to edit a page there is a text area but no tinyMCE toolbar above it. Its the tinyMCE 2.0.5 module I have installed.

Thanks,
Ryan

I copied this code in the content and got a WMV included

Code: Select all

 <object width="425" height="350">
      <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/x-kqdUXqI9c"></param>
      <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
      <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/x-kqdUXqI9c" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" 
                         width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

Can you view it in Firefox 2? It works fine in internet explorer for me.

Thanks

Not now, I am on a location with only access to IE6...
