You only have code with a classid for IE. Firefox ignores code with a classid.
You also specify the filename with a backslash in it (video\The Game.wmv).

Use this code for the object, that should work (filename in data and add a type that is supported by the WMP plugin):

<object data="video/The Game.wmv" style="display: inline; visibility: visible;" type="application/x-mplayer2" id="ActiveMovie1" height="315" width="442">

Honestly, I did not understand the solution that you suggested. I am not a programmer. May be the programmer that designed the website will understand your suggested solution. However, if you have a layman's solution, I'll be glad to follow that.

Which software do you use to create the page(s) and generate the HTML code?

The code that is currently generated won't work in Firefox.

You can see the current code via and search for object (Ctrl+F):

  • Firefox > Web Developer > Page Source
  • Tools > Web Developer > Page Source
  • Right-click on a web page to open the right-click context menu and select Page Source

I have sent the solution that you proposed to the website designer. I am still waiting for his feedback. I only paid for the website and supplied the contents.
