    Try using the GetElementById instead:

    document.getElementById('MediaPlayer').Stop();

    thanks , This logic works when there is image or file.

    But for media 

    setting display=none only hide the video but the sound of video is heard in the background

    So I need to stop the playing video . I tried by using getElement by Id as well

    but I think there is no method support called  stop () in javascript.How do I proceed In this scenario

     IE and FFox use different plugins for WMP. You need to determine which browser is being used, and then supply relevant plugin such as:-

     <body style="background:black">

    <div id="playdiv1" style="position:absolute;left:419px;top:0px;height:44px;"></div>

    <script type="text/javascript">

    if (-1 != navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE")) {

    document.getElementById("playdiv1").innerHTML = '<object id="Player" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" style="position:absolute;top:10px;width:64px;height:54px;filter: progid:DXImageTransform.Microsoft.BasicImage(grayScale = 1 )" ><param name="autoStart" value="false"/><param name="UImode" value="none"/><param name="stretchtofit" value="true"/><param name="volume" value="100"/><param name="Url" value="Elvis Presley - Way Down.mp3"/><param name="windowlessVideo" value="true"/></object>';

    }

    else if (-1 != navigator.userAgent.indexOf("Firefox")) {

    document.getElementById("playdiv1").innerHTML = '<object id="Player" type="application/x-ms-wmp" Width="64px" Height="64px" Url="Elvis Presley - Way Down.mp3"><param name="autoStart" value="false"/><param name="UImode" value="none"/><param name="volume" value="100"/><param name="windowlessVideo" value="true"/></object>'; var hitme = "H:\\Sound\\rkive\\cd lib1\\";

    Player = document.getElementById("Player");

    }

    </script>

    </body>

     Then the syntax to stop etc is:-

    document.getElementById("Player").controls.stop();
