Hi,

I have a question about an inserted OBJECT-element of Windows MediaPlayer and get acces to this object during an event.

I put the next OBJECT in de main.js as string, and add this with appendElement:

---- code ---- var playobj = "<object classId='clsid:6bf52a52-394a-11d3- b153-00c04f79faa6' name='objWmp' id='objWmp'>"; playobj += "<param name='AutoStart' value='true' />"; playobj += "<param name='url' value='xxx'/>"; playobj += "</object>";

function view_onOpen() { // Add the player object ret = view.appendElement(playobj); } ---- code ----

This works. But now I want access to the object of 'objWmp'?

I have tried the next options:

--- code --- function btnPlayStopclick() {

if (bMediaPlayerEnabled) { var obj = view.children('objWmp'); obj.controls.stop(); } } --- code ---

But the gadet will comes with an exception of incorrect object function or method. But "controls.stop();" is the correct function to stop playing the WMP object.

I think that 'obj' variable the object is of the appendElement during previous event onview_load(). How can I access to the OBJECT within this object?

Thanks you.
