Hi.
Is there anyway I can have the web player playing a file defined by a javascript function?

Anyone know how to do this?

Webmasters SDK

Did you check out any of the examples in the Webmaster SDK?

I've scoured through the SDK

I've scoured through the SDK now and all I've gained is a sore head, I've tried everything I can think of.
The reason I want this is so I can have a structure like
me.com/watch#file.avi

I can get the file .avi using the js function:
document.getElementById('comments').value = String(location.hash).substring(1);

But I can't use that as a source file because DivX doesn't run on javascript

DivxPlayer + Javascript

Hi,

If you want to play with the divx player and javascript, create
the object / embed with all parameters you need through javascript and insert into the Dom.

Something like :

HTML : Create a target div :

<div id='target'></div>

JAVASCRIPT : Create the player / DOM insertion

var video_filename='myvideo.avi';
var string=[];
string.push('<object id=\'divxobj_ie\' classid=.....');
string.push('<param name=\'src\' value=\' '+video_filename+' \' />');
string.push('<param ....');
string.push('<embed id=\'divxobj_np\' ...');
string.push('</embed></object>');
document.getElementById('target').innerHTML = string.join('');

Integrate all params / callbacks you want ( check the SDK for more informations ).

Hope this help,

Regards,

Jeff
