    Media Player Object

    I have a media player object in ASP on a default page. I'd like to have the
    audio play continuously no matter what page the user goes to.

    In all of the ASP files I have:
    <!--#include file="header.ht ml"--right after the <bodytag. The header
    file has the page header graphic and menu. I tried to put the <OBJECTin
    header.html but the playlist restarts on every page.

    Any way to get the object to load and stay without restarting?

    Thanks.

    It doesn't work like that. Page-specific objects get destroyed on
    navigatation to the next page. Otherwise you'd be in a wacky state - if the
    next page wants to do something with the player ... who should win that
    contention?

    If you want to do this, you would need to use some sort of frame set, with
    the player embedded in a preserved page that doesn't flip with the rest of
    the pages.

      Where can I find a reference for all of the available properties and methods
      for WMP to use in the <OBJECT>?

      Thanks...

        MSDN is a pretty useful reference for this sort of question:

        should cover it. =)

        Cheers,
