Don't you just love it when you make a simple mistake coding and spend over an hour trying to figure out what is wrong?

A friend of mine wanted to view the Ana Interview that is on my Blog but the video would not play in IE.

At first we are thinking that there is something wrong with their version of QuickTime so we spend a bunch of time upgrading it to the latest version but that doesn't fix it.

So then I'm thinking that I'm using the wrong code on my page so I spend a bunch more time researching what the proper code is to embed a mp4 video but can't find anything wrong with my code.

Thinking that there must be something wrong with their PC I open up Windows IE on my Mac only to see the same issue.

Finally after way more then an hour of frustration I notice that the path to the movie file is incorrect on the tag that IE uses.

Took all of about 5 seconds to fix the file path but took well over an hour to notice that the path was wrong.
