| It doesn't matter whether you change your Windows settings to have Windows Media Player as the default or not. When using Firefox, the default seems to be QuickTime. Just like we web-designers like to use CSS to ensure that our web-sites have a certain look and feel, regardless of the visitor and their settings, so too would I like to have control over what player is initiated. What if they don't have Windows Media Player? Could there be an "if", "then" statement, that if there is no WMP, then it would initiate the user's default? Am I dreaming? Am I wishing for too much? :-) | ||

These comments got out of order. JCF reports that the revised script at http://digitalmedia.oreilly.com/2006/05/31/build-a-better-web-audio-player.html fixed the problem. -

Yes, it did fix the problem, but I am still curious if something could be added to the script, so that if the user doesn't have Windows Media Player, it would initiate their default player. What do you think? Too tall of an order to fulfill?
