"Embedding .avi Videos for streaming"

I am using this code on my webpages.













the video code bit is:
" "

The file "dragracing.avi" is in the same directory as the webpage. When I upload it the player appears but the computr asks me to download it instead of buffering etc and streaming it. What should I add to the code or where am I going wrong?

not go it stills ask for a download.

Try including more properties.








type="application/x-mplayer2"
pluginspage="http://www. (SPACE) microsoft.com/isapi/redir.dll?prd=windows&sbp=mediapla (SPACE) yer&ar=Media&sba=Plugin&"
src="dragracing.avi"
name=MediaPlayer
showcontrols=0
height="240"
width="300">
showdisplay="0"
showstatusbar="0">

It might work if you get it to open in it's own Media Player window, rather than embedding it, like so:
