getMarkerName on Safari (Windows)   

Hi:

This code:

nCount =MediaPlayer.currentMedia.markerCount;
for(var i=1;i<nCount+1;i++){
	alert(MediaPlayer.currentMedia.getMarkerName(i));
}

works fine on IE6+, Firefox 2+, but on Safari 3+ for Windows
MediaPlayer.currentMedia.getMarkerName(i) returns undefined.

thanks in advance

Re: getMarkerName on Safari (Windows)   

What embed code are you using ? I wasn't aware Safari on any platform,
any version usefully supported scripting of WM Components, although
they may allow for basic web page embedding.

Is (for example) the MediaPlayer object and currentMedia object
showing as having any properties or methods at all (other than the
basic DOM properties on the <object /> element) ? 

Cheers - Neil

Neil:
I use the following code:

<object id='MediaPlayer' width='100%' height='100%' type='application/
x-ms-wmp'>
   <param name='uiMode' value='full'/>
   <param name='AutoStart' value='false'/>
   <param name='StretchToFit' value='true'/>
   <param name="enableContextMenu" value="false"/>
</object>

I can get the markers count (with
MediaPlayer.currentMedia.markerCount) and manage the  events
ScriptCommand, PlayStateChange and Error using:

function OnDSScriptCommandEvt(szType,szParam){
}
function OnDSPlayStateChangeEvt(nNewState){
}
function OnDSErrorEvt(){
}

regards,
Christian
