movie inserted into my html

Expand Post »

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,

Re: movie inserted into my html

Are you using a WYSIWYG or are you hard coding?

Re: movie inserted into my html

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
