Post your code so far.
You can do this pretty easily if you set an ID for the embed tag.

ok at the moment i use this embed code:

Code: Select all

<embed src="mms://..........?sid=FB398D6B-E0E9-4A99-9CF1-4E71FD187F08-8-24852" width="400" height="400" autostart="1"
 showcontrols="1" type="application/x-mplayer2"
 pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/"> </embed>

Use this (I've added an ID attribute):

HTML: Select all

<embed src="mms://..........?sid=FB398D6B-E0E9-4A99-9CF1-4E71FD187F08-8-24852" width="400" height="400" autostart="1"
 showcontrols="1" type="application/x-mplayer2"
 pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/download/" id="stream"> </embed>

And try this pseudo JS:

HTML: Select all

document.getElementById("player").src = 'newsrchere'
