Note: it works only for Internet Explorer. Not for Netscape, neither for 
Mozilla, that just ignore the tag. I don't know for other browsers, like 
Opera.
So if you choose this solution, you better provide a link to your file 
beside this tag, so users can still download it and play it with a 
standalone player.
