Err. I don't think it can be done, really. Certainly not with plain HTML, and I'm pretty sure not with JavaScript, either. You could maybe do something in Flash, although it wouldn't open Windows Media Player or anything. Really, the best you could do would be to link to a media file, which the user will then have the option to open in Windows Media Player (or the media player of their choice). It wouldn't have a custom skin, though. They'd have to download and install that separately.

Yeah, Flash would probably be your best option.

What the hell? This is a simple code and nobody could figure it out?

Make an onclick function on the image to launch "window.html" with the movie embedded in "window.html".

Its not nice to get negative feedback from people because you dont know a bit of code, thats what these forums are for! If u dont have anything nice to say dont say anyting at all.

Congrats on your page man, well done
