Hi,

I've used this code to navigate to a webpage:

XML

<hyperlinkbutton content="Bear" grid.row="2" height="48" horizontalalignment="Left" margin="25,27,0,0" name="hlinkBear" verticalalignment="Top" width="64" navigateuri="http://cespage.com/bear.wmv" />

but it's not working.
Then I used WebBrowserTask like:

C#

Uri url = new Uri("http://cespage.com/bear.wmv", UriKind.Absolute);
wbt.URL = url.ToString();
wbt.Show();

(wbt is WebBrowserTask)
but again, it's not working for all videos.
It plays one and not the other.

I've used mediaelement too, but here also same problem. It is playing a video and not the others (all are .wmv).

How can I navigate to a webpage through a hyperlink.
If that link contains a video, would it be played directly on phone's media player, just like we do on our explorers.

Thanks in advance

For starters, your navigateuri should be written as "http://www.", not "http://". Without that the control could potentially be problematic. We can get away without this in most browsers because they simply put it there if it is missing, but your app via code is likely not doing that. If that doesn't help, I'm not sure what the problem with your code is.
