    Hello friends,

    I am trying to embed Windows Media Player in my ASP page.

    I am using the following code to do so.

    <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" name="wmp1" ShowStatusBar="true" EnableContextMenu="true" autostart="true" loop="false" src='<% rs.field("Link") %>'/>
    Code (markup):

    The problem is..... the song doesnt get played after I embed it this way.

    Can any one suggest me any solution?

    I check out the connectivity coding, its perfectly fine & the link is getting retrieved properly.


    Please Help.

    have you tried changing:
    <% rs.field("Link") %>
    to
    <%= rs.field("Link") %>

    To evaluate the expression i think you need to add the = sign, or it will do nothing. Or:
    <% Response.Write rs.Field("Link") %>

    @camjohnson95


    Thanks a lot.

    I missed that " = " there. It is working perfectly now :)

    I am new to ASP..... and am learning it all on my own. So there are such simple things I am unaware of :(

    Thank you very much. :)

    Have a good day! :)

    Very easy

    Your server should support this MIME type and make sure the URL for the music is correct

    you could embed a flash player - then have a true streaming audio file if you are looking for a cleaner/more compliant/faster loading scenario
