AHHHHHHHHHHHH goddamn, these things drive me batty - I couldn't find a way to embed media player files within blog posts and either have them a) not start by default in Firefox DESPITE having autostart explicitly set to false, or b) kill Internet Explorer altogether.
It's really bad at work when you open up a page and then suddenly you get this loud blasting music video or something - it's especially bad when the person at the desk next to you is on a call on speakerphone. I won't forget the time when my colleague was talking to a client, and I opened up a blog, and they had embedded Tambourine by Eve, and we all got caught by surprise when this loud YA GOTTA SHAKE YO ASS blared out of my machine! The client was all like, 'wtf?!??'
I found it easier to rip the wmv, convert it, and upload it to Google or Youtube. Serz. :-/
Sorry about that Marshy. Just got rid of the video. I was just posting it up as a test to see if the code worked, and so P-Money could post it up to his blog.
Heheh, sorry about the rant :-) I can understand you wanting to test it out, but yeah, most bloggers don't think about how work friendly it might be. (I'll be forever scarred by the YA GOTTA SHAKE YO ASS event!)ipen
No worries :)
