Interestingly enough I’m also having problems with embedding a poster frame/QuickTime. However, my problem occurs only in FireFox and not in Safari. You can view the problem in action here: http://www.innitdigital.com/wordpress
Select “Restricted Access” from the sidebar and use “access2005” as the password. You’ll see (in FireFox) that the layout has gone all over the show.
The code I’m using is as follows:
<object classid=”clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B” codebase=”http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab” height=”196″ width=”240″>
<param name=”src” value=”poster.mov”>
<param name=”href” value=”actual_movie.mov”>
<param name=”target” value=”myself”>
<param name=”autoplay” value=”false”>
<param name=”controller” value=”false”>
<embed height=”196″ pluginspage=”http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/” src=”poster.mov” href=”actual_movie.mov” target=”myself” type=”video/quicktime” width=”240″ controller=”false” autoplay=”false”>
</object>
Anyone who can help with this will go straight to my x-mas list (this thing’s been driving me nuts).
Thanks in advance,
Ole
