Question How to stop video from auto playing

I've encoded a mpeg video with Real Player and Windows Media.. the Real Player waits for the person to hit play but the Windows just automatically starts... is there a way to prevent this? I wanted to have the demos on the same page and have the user pick which one to view but if the Windows auto starts, it kind of messes that up.

I'm also very new at this so if this sound all messed up...that is why

i am pretty sure there is an autostart attribute of some kind, if you post your code for the part that doesn't work as you wish or a link to the page we can probably get it working.

Hi Jack..

The webpage is www.rdphotoworks.com and it is in the demo link. You'll notice that the real player is on that page becuase I had to add a link to view via media player because it would auto start. Hope that is what you need. I appreciate it.
