WHen accessing the references page in IE 7.0 the .wmv file plays after a short
delay to load. When accessing hte page in Firefox, the .jpg is visible, but the
.wmv never plays.  I have the Flash and Real Player extensions loaded.

Relevant line of source could is 
<img border="0" dynsrc="https://home.comcast.net/~con_case/Movie_0002.wmv"
start="fileopen" src="https://home.comcast.net/~con_case/cw1.jpg">



Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. load page
2. obseve that .wmv file does not play
3.

Actual Results:  
see jpg iomamge but no video

Expected Results:

dynsrc is something Microsoft just sort of made up.  Use the standard <object>
tag to include non-image media in a page.
