Movie Question

[Burrow]

I know that if I leave my .AVI video in <embed ...> form, that I will not be able to initially get rid of the controls, but I was wondering if there was an easier way in either html. javascript, or very limited java to get my .avi movie to play without the controls?

I tried using <object> command, but that led to a bad path, couldn't find the clsid or the codebase. So, thats out of the question too.

Any help is appreciated,
Thanks.

The proprietary method would follow these rules: <embed src="video.avi" autostart="true" /> The more advanced method would be to use something similar to this: <object data="video.avi" type="video/avi"></object>

The function of the classid to to determine which multimedia player is preferred it is not essential.

<object classid="CLSID:05589FA1-C356-11CE-BF01-00AA0055595A" width="100" height="100">
<param name="FileName" value="video.avi" type="video/avi" />
<param name="ShowDisplay" value="0" />
<param name="ShowControls" value="0" />
<param name="AutoStart" value="-1" />
<param name="PlayCount" value="1" />
<param name="MovieWindowWidth" value="100" />
<param name="MovieWindowHeight" value="100" />
<embed src="video.avi" autostart="true" />
</object>
