I have a pretty simple movie that I want to "click to play" instead of using the autoplay param.
I have an image I would like to use as a placeholder and then have the movie appear when the image is clicked. Sort of a "click to play" deal.
Any ideas how I can do this?
Currently I am using the following code to display the movie.
document.write('<object bgcolor="#000000" classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C
document.write('<param name="src" value="http://www.communiq
document.write('<param name="autoplay" value="false">')
document.write('<param name="controller" value="true">')
document.write('<embed src="http://www.communique
Thanks!

Wow...that would be easy.
I'm getting an error saying "object required" with the above. What could be missing??
<script type="text/javascript">
function swap() {
document.getElementById(vi
document.getElementById(vi
}
</script>
<div id="video1"><a onclick="swap()"><img border="0" src="images/video_ss.gif" alt="Click to Play our Credintials Video"><br>click to play...</a></div>
<div id="video2" style="display:none"><script

Could it be as simple as wrapping the movie in a div, setting it to "display: none" then swap the movie for the image? (Image goes to "display:none", movie goes to "display:block")
