I have an ASP page and it includes a Windows Media Player and an AIM messenger client embedded. I'm not sure if this is an ASP issue, but neither of those two work in IE, but they work in Firefox. Any ideas why? Thanks.

Here's the page:

It was opposite when tried, the controls displayed in IE but not FF. Perhaps there's a difference in loading sequence, I noticed that FF was stalling because of a large 560KB png image coming from a very low-bandwidth server, it took ages to load just that image. Then FF was asking to install Quicktime (IE didn't), which i refused and FF was waiting indefinitely. Perhaps you who got the source know what's going on with QT, but initial DL time is something to cater for.

When I configured FF to block images from your server the controls also displayed in FF. WM reported media length 00:00 in both.
 
Thanks, John. I can leave out the large PNG background for now and see what happens. I don't know about the QuickTime part, but I'll look at it.

It probably makes sense that media length is 0. It's not playing a file, it's a live audio stream, so length is indefinite.
