hmmm
Try This:
Code:
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body bgcolor=silver>
<script language="javascript">
function start_to_watch()
{
var div;
div=document.getElementById('Moviediv');
div.innerHTML='<embed src="my.avi" width="250" height="250" autostart=true hidden="false" />';
}
</script>
<form>
<div width=250 height=250 name="Moviediv"></div>
<input type=button style=background:blue;color:yellow;font-size:24; value="watch it now" onClick="start_to_watch()">
</form>
</body>
</html>

very small change in code required (at least for me)
change the DIVs "name" property to "id".
so NOT:
name="Moviediv"
but
id="Moviediv"

Whoops
I wrote it to fast - sorry, it's ofcourse ID (getElementById), My bad!

And you'll probably want quotes around the style property value of the button - though most browsers will accept the wrong code too.
