Embedded media player

SGT Buckeye

I am doing a website for my Army unit's Family Readiness Group that
has a WMV file that autoplays in an embedded WMP. This works great.
My problem is whenever you click on something else on the page, the
video starts to play again. Is there a way to autoplay a video the
first time the page is loaded and not after every click. This is the
code for the page.

You are correct, the file number is wrong. It should have been
9577710. Let me see if I can explain this clearly. The web page was
created in AKO (Army Knowledge Online) and as such is created using
web channels for people who can not write HTML or who don't use a web
designing program like Dreamweaver or Frontpage. To build the site, I
chose what types of web channels I wanted on my page and then placed
them where I wanted them. For any item that is displayed on the page,
including media, there is a document ID number given to it when you
upload it to your Knowledge Center which contains all the files.
Whenever you display an item, you do it with the standard format:
https://www.us.army.mil/suite/doc/9577710
This WMV file is displayed in a web channel which allows you to
display another web page. I don't know if you will be able to view
the page because it requires an AKO login. I was just wondering if
there was a way that I could have the file play just the first time
that the member visited the page and not autoplay again during the
same session.

Hello,

This can be achieved using JavaScript or server side scripting language.

Let me tell you that this requires some programming on both options.
