movie inserted into my html

Oct 7th, 2009

I have a movie, Media Player(mymovie.wmv), also have it in Quicktime (mymovie.mov), and flash(my movie.flv)

I want it to open in a unframed position in the web page, I have no idea how to write the html for this. I have saved all the versions of this movie into the clients media folder, but just dont know how to insert it into the html and have the movie start playing upon the web page loading.

Help please,

Are you using a WYSIWYG or are you hard coding?

Failure is not an option It's included free
If at first you dont succeed, join the club
Of course its always in the last place you look, you dont keep looking after you find it

Please mark solved problems, solved

WYSiWYG what you see is what you get
as in "FrontPage is a wysiwyg editor"

the code sample at the top of the prior reply should be cut and pasted into 'html view' in frontpage if you use it
the stuff in the <head></head> copied into your <head> the stuff in the <body></body> copied into your <body>
stuff between <style></style> and <script></script> tags copied between the same tags in your page head

FrontPage is not particularly friendly to import code, but the addition is MS centric so it wont **expletive deleted** up
