Hi, I need some help with a webpage....

I'm currently adding an embedded video to my webpage but for some reason IE adds additional parameters to my object tag when I'm using innerHTML?

For instance..

objectText = <object id="player" codebase="......" classid="....." width="...." height="....." style=""><param name="MRL" value="../media/video.flv"/></object>

but when using: n.innerHTML = objectText; (where n is the element found by the id),

The innerHTML changes to something totally different. Internet Explorer parses the text and for some reason adds parameters to the innerHTML.... Why?? I don't want that!..., I want to add exactly the text and parameters of objectText.

My innerHtml looks like this which is not what I want!

<OBJECT id=player style="LEFT: 0px; WIDTH: 320px; TOP: 0px; HEIGHT: 240px" codeBase=http://downloads.videolan.org/pub/videolan/vlc/latest/win32/axvlc.cab height=240 width=320 classid=clsid:9BE31822-FDAD-461B-AD51-BE1D1C159921><PARAM NAME="AutoLoop" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="AutoPlay" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="Toolbar" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="ExtentWidth" VALUE="8467"><PARAM NAME="ExtentHeight" VALUE="6350"><PARAM NAME="MRL" VALUE="video.flv"><PARAM NAME="Visible" VALUE="-1"><PARAM NAME="Volume" VALUE="50"><PARAM NAME="StartTime" VALUE="0"><PARAM NAME="BaseURL" VALUE="19.html"><PARAM NAME="BackColor" VALUE="0"></OBJECT>

Can someone help me with this? How can I get IE not to parse and add parameters to the text that I assign to the innerHTML of a specific tag with a specific id?

Help please...
