Quicktime movie will play in browers but will not play from html

[bestimagevictoria94]

Hi all
First time post
I recently set up a website using x10hosting

I noticed that IE, Firefox and Opera will play my QuickTime movie, with an extension of .qt or .mov - but these browsers will not play the clip from html code. Here is my code:

<object width="512" height="312"
classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B">
<param name="src" value="ship.qt">
<param name="autoplay" value="false">
<param name="controller" value="true">
<embed type="video/quicktime" src="ship.qt" width="512" height="312"
autoplay="false" controller="true"
pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">
</embed>
</object>

I'm pretty sure that the code is right - it works on my computer locally. I have the latest Quicktime and even loaded the plugins to the same folder as my clip and my html

Any help is appreciated. TIA

Are there any errors logged in the browsers' error consoles? Does anything show in the browser where the video should be? What versions of the browsers did you test? When asking for coding help, state what you expect to happen, what actually happens (including any error messages), and include a URL for a live test page.

Thanks for getting back to me. I did manage to solve the problem, I just had to add:

<param name="href" value=".htm" />

within the object tag

and

href=".htm" within the embed tag

works as it should.
