s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always");
s1.addParam("flashvars","fullscreen=true&bufferlen gth=5&image=http://www.mikesouth.com/jpgs/Nurses_DVD_FC.jpg&streamer=rtmp://76.76.22.203:1935/mikesouth&file=mp4:nurses.m4v");
s1.write("player");
</script>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
</div>
works fine standalone, even in IE is there something in this that wordpress is parsing out?

you have 281 errors and 57 warnings in your html

in Firefox it will work because it's a real browser (duh!) and it will try to fix the errors when displaying it

IE8 solves this to some extent, hence why Boozer can see it, but IE7 goes nuts when trying to read and display some code. To make it worse, this could happen with 100% valid html as well, but obviously it happens a lot more if you have 1 million errors in your page

Try another theme and see what happens. If this continues, edit the post and remove the video to see what happens. If you still have trouble, try using one of many WP plugins to use FLV

thanks man thats a handy little site I think its gonn help me work around it anyways

I dont wanna use a flash player because i want to stream H.264 AND I want it streamed not a progressive download...i know it seems weird but theres a method to my madness

No problems here

works fine in IE 8.

No it doesnt...look at the bottom of the page


and if you go to www.mikesouth.com

it dies after the first post

close the div before the script starts

the script is injecting the swf inside itself

<div id="player" align="center">
<p>&nbsp;</p>


<p>&nbsp;</p>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript">
var s1 = new SWFObject("http://www.mikesouth.com/msplayer/msplayer.swf","ply","640","380","9","#FFFFFF");
s1.addParam("allowfullscreen","true");
s1.addParam("allowscriptaccess","always");
s1.addParam("flashvars","fullscreen=true&bufferlen gth=5&image=http://www.mikesouth.com/jpgs/Nurses_DVD_FC.jpg&streamer=rtmp://76.76.22.203:1935/mikesouth&file=mp4:nurses.m4v");
s1.write("player");
</script>

see this works fine

p.s. on the most common screen resolution the flash video throws the alignment off the page as well
