WMV embed for Mac users, embed

Problem with Status bar

[koppted]

Hi folks, i just did an embed for windows media. for some reason, the status bar shows for all browsers on windows , but will not show for Mac users who have either Safari or Firefox, could someone tell me what i might be doing wrong here? here is the code

//write out the mozilla complient code
document.write( "<EMBED NAME =\"EmbedmediaPlayer\"");
document.write( "PLUGINSPAGE =\"http://microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/en/download/\" ");
document.write( "FILENAME =\"domain.com/videofile\" ");
document.write( "SHOWSTATUSBAR =\"true\" ");
document.write( "SHOWCONTROLS =\"true\" ");
document.write( "TYPE =\"application/x-mplayer2\" ");
document.write( "SRC =\"" + videolink + "\"");
document.write( "WIDTH =\"480\" ");
document.write( "HEIGHT =\"425\"> ");
document.write( "</EMBED>" );
}
</script>
  <noscript>
  <embed name ="EmbedmediaPlayer"
     pluginspage ="http://microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/en/download/"
     filename  ="domain.com/videofile"     
     showstatusbar ="true"
     showcontrols ="true"
     showdisplay ="true"
     showtracker ="true"
     type ="application/x-mplayer2"
     src ="domain.com/videofile"     
     width ="480" 
     height ="425"></embed>
  </noscript>
 </object>

... because it's embedding media player ... on a Mac?

<confused>

Why output from document.write is different from <noscript> and what is this lonely </object>?

showcontrols="true" (deprecated) is unnecessary and waste of bytes, since it is true by default. Same applies to these:
showdisplay ="true" (deprecated)
showtracker ="true" (deprecated)

In IE when you use active-x media player object (clsid:6BF52A52-394A-11D3-B153-00C04F79FAA6) uiMode = full is default.

For browsers that use non-active-x plugin like Firefox, Opera always use 1 or 0 instead of true or false.
ShowStatusBar="1" should add status bar.
