Hi guys, I have been trying for ages to get my video on myspace to loop so it goes on and on. i was told to add loop="200" to the section of code you can see below. Have I put it in the right place? If not where should it go? Many thanks

<a href="http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.individual&videoid=1392742315"> </a><br><embed allowScriptAccess="never" enableJSURL="false" enableHREF="false" saveEmbedTags="true" src="http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf loop="200" enableHREF="false" saveEmbedTags="true" allowScriptAccess="never" allownetworking="internal" flashvars="m=1392742315&type=video&a=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="600" height="400"></embed><br><a href="http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.addToProfileConfirm&videoid=1392742315&title=Blue Blood Trailer"></a> | <a href="http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=vids.home"> </a>

It looks like the right spot, anywherre inside the embed tag is alright . . . but I'd suggest loop="true" might be more appropriate.
Try it and see if it works - it should, but myspace being what it is . . . as the song says "anything goes"

Perhaps the full URL might be helpful.

IIRC it was loop for Netscape and playcount="n" (where 'n' is a number) for IE.

Hey, tried both of your suggestions but still no luck. http://lads.myspace.com/videos/vplayer.swf seems to be the full url. Dont know where to go from here as I have to get it to loop but it seems like I have exhausted all ways of doing this!!!

Probably dated info, but in embed tags
loop="true" is universally recognized.
loop="n" will take precedence in IE.

I mean the URL of your myspace page where the video has been inserted.

I think the reason it won't loop is because of the movie . . . since it has the HREF urls or ActionScript (or whatever it is using to display those random movies) at the end it is designed not to loop but is waiting for a action.
