Hello. I have been searching hi and low, and I keep seeing different versions of pretty much exactly the same code posted everywhere (not just on DreamHost's support, but in other places) giving an example of how to embed a Quicktime file into a web page, but every time I try it, all I get is a big blue "Q" on both IE and FireFox 3, and nothing beyond that. Can anyone help me out with what I'm missing?
Here's my web page:
http://www.emeraldisleacademy.com/video/index.php
And here's the code I'm using to embed the video:
<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" height="256" width="320">
<param name="src" value="rtsp://streaming.emeraldisleacademy.com/streaming.emeraldisleacademy.com/Druids-Small.mov">
<param name="autoplay" value="true">
<param name="type" value="video/quicktime" height="256" width="320">
<embed src="rtsp://streaming.emeraldisleacademy.com/streaming.emeraldisleacademy.com/Druids-Small.mov" height="256" width="320" autoplay="true" type="video/quicktime" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</object>
There has to be something I'm missing.
Thanks much,
Mark
