Windows media player

[Florida Charter Guide]

I've installed the Windows media player add-in and loaded a video in a
website built with Frontpage 2002 software. Everything works fine when I
click "preview" in Frontpage and I was able to view the video in Internet
explorer.
However, in Firefox the video doesn't display???
I use Pinnacle Studio 11 for video editing.
I need to know that everyone sees my videos before continuing.
Is my problem Pinnacle, FrontPage, Firfox???
The page URL is:
www.floridacharterguide.com/f.htm
Here is the video HTML:

Thanks Steve,
The URL you gave me was for player 7
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms983653.aspx

I've installed player 9
I'm not very clear on what I'm doing here???
Thanks, Scott

It will work the same, just ensure you use the CLSID for Media player 9

However, if you use the CLSID for 7, the computer "should" automatically use a newer version if installed.
You might want to check and see.
