How do I embed a quicktime movie into an iphone web app using javascript?

Question

I'm creating an iphone webapp in dashcode for the first time and I can not figure out the code for embedding a video into the webapp.I have an html file and have a few pages it switches between but I need to create a function in javascript so when I click a button that it will pull up a video I in quicktime. Any sample code or thoughts? If anyone could give me some samplecode I would appreciate it

You could try something like this (completely untested):

function showVideo(vidFile) {
    var vidElem=document.createElement("video");
    vidElem.setAttribute("src", vidFile);
    vidElem.play();
}

And then invoke it like this:

showVideo("your_movie_file.mov");
