Question

I have a modal popup inside of an update panel with a silverlight control.

The video displays fine in IE 7/8 but in firefox all I get is a white screen

I am using the following video skin from link text

                <div style='height:360px;'>                 <asp:Silverlight                   ID='myVideoPlayer'                   runat='server'                   Source='~/Videos/VideoPlayer.xap'                    Width='640px'                   Height='360px'                    InitParameters='m=Efficiency.wmv'                   Windowless='true' />                 </div> 

I know it works when I use the normal <object> method but that will not work as I need to set the Initparams from the code behind depending on what video category they choose.

I have consulted the google gods and they have been not so helpful. Hope you guys can help me with this problem. Thank you!

Answer 1

I use Object tag, and init params injected to aspx like this :

<%= initparams %>   

initparams is protected variable of my Page class:

public partial class _Default : System.Web.UI.Page {     protected string initparams;      protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)     {         initparams = 'm=video.asx';     } 

you can also change that variable in any event, it will be injected to rendered HTML.
