There shouldn't be a plugin needed to display image or media files.
If such files are send with the correct content type by the server then it should work.


<object data="http://<link_to_image" type="image/jpg"> </object>

data:text/html;charset=utf-8,<object data="https://support.mozilla.org/media/img/avatar.png" type="image/png"> </object>

It doesnt works for me. Even for video if i disable media player plugin it is not working because mime type for my video extension is available in media player plugin only. so i need to know which plugin can support mime type of image/jpg so that image can be displayed

C# code

if (galler.RowCount > 0)

{
       if (galler.s_IImageCategoryId == "2") // for Wall Photos
             {
                    drRowsShare["Type"] = "image/jpeg";
                    drRowsShare["UserShareImageLoaded"] = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "/WallPhotos/" + galler.IUserId + "/" + galler.s_SImageName;
              }
              else if (galler.s_IImageCategoryId == "4")  // for videos
              {
                        drRowsShare["Type"] = "video/x-ms-wmv";
                        drRowsShare["UserShareImageLoaded"] = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + "/WallVideos/" + galler.IUserId + "/" + galler.s_SVideoName;
               }
              drRowsShare["GalleryId"] = GalleryId;
 }

Aspx code:

<object data='<%# Eval("UserShareImageLoaded")%>' type='<%# Eval("Type")%>' height="250" width="250">

<param name="autostart" value="false" />
</object>
</object>

You can try type="image/jpg" for the image and type="application/x-mplayer2" for the media file to see if that works better
