Embedding Windows Media files

Would anyone know of a good tutorial on how to embed a Windows Media video f
ile
and the player on a web page using Dreamweaver MX 2004?  I have found a
tutorial here,
(http://www.macromedia.com/support/d...mediaplayer.htm)
,
but I have reason to believe it is outdated, especially since the URL for th
e
plugin, I found, was expired.

Thanks in advance for any help!

You must try the below code:

01 ) asf enabled

<?php echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"iso-8859-1\"?".">"; ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>-o-</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
</head>

<body>

<object type="video/x-ms-asf" data="file.asf" width="400" height="80">
<param name="FileName" value="file.asf" />
<param name="AutoStart" value="1" />
<param name="ShowStatusBar" value="1" />
<param name="ShowDisplay" value="0" />
</object>

</body>
</html>

02 ) direct wma

<?php echo "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"iso-8859-1\"?".">"; ?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<title>-o-</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
</head>

<body>
<object
type="audio/x-ms-wma" data="file.wma"
width="400" height="80">
<param name="FileName" value="file.wma" />
<param name="AutoStart" value="1" />
<param name="ShowStatusBar" value="1" />
<param name="ShowDisplay" value="0" />
</object>

</body>
</html>

I've tested on IE, Firefox and Opera. It works fine.
