Play MPEG on click

[maverick911]

Hey thanks CLFlava...really helped...

I need to add mped files to my website. I mean when a user clikcs on a link(PLAY), it should start playing the corresponding media file. I'm facing difficulties in linking the two.

-Thanks

it its IE only then:
<embed src="MPEG file path" name="TheMovie">


<input type="button" value="Play" onclick="document.TheMovie.play">

or

<input type="button" value="Play" onclick="document.TheMovie.play()">

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull

With this syntax, the movie starts playinf as soon as the page loads. I want the user to click on an image (not a button) to play the movie.


-Thanks

sorry, my mistake:
<div id="MyDiv>"
</div>

<input type="button" value="Play" onclick="PlayeMovie()">

<script>
function PlayMovie()
{
TheTag='<embed src="MPEG file path" name="TheMovie">'
document.getElementById("MyDiv").innerHTML=TheTag
}
</script>

Known is handfull, Unknown is worldfull
