I'm embedding a flash radio player and I've changed the flashVAR to true: <param name="FlashVars" value="autoPlay=true">

Yet I've only gotten the player to autoplay in IE, but not other browsers. Thoughts?

<object
 classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"
 codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,28,0"
 width="300" height="250">
  <param name="movie" value="http://8tracks.com/mixes/145636/player_v3"&gt;
  <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
  <param name="FlashVars" value="autoPlay=true">
  <embed src="http://8tracks.com/mixes/145636/player_v3"
    pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
    width="300" height="250" allowscriptaccess="always" >
  </embed>
</object>
A: 

You are liking using an embed tag within an object tag so that it works smoothly in IE and other browsers. When doing this, make sure you have changed the appropriate variable in both tags.

On another note, if you'd add your HTML, and more information about your specific problem, you'd probably get more replies.
