Video on websites

[Lotte Simons]

Does anyone know how to embed video into websites?

I use webs.com and I can upload the file into the file manager but to actually embed it into a page....im totally lost on that bit.

Does anyone know the code or anything? I've tried searching online and haven't come across anything helpful.

Cheers guys.

Take a look at FLV Player...

http://www.longtailvideo.com/players/jw-flv-player/

There are others on that site, but that's the one that I use on the majority of my websites where embedded video is required.

Try this.

<p align="center">
<object
width="320"
height="260"
classid="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95"
hspace="0"
border="1">
<param
name="Filename" value="VIDFILE" />
<param
name="AutoStart"
value="True" />
<param
name="ShowControls"
value="False" />
<param
name="ShowStatusBar"
value="True" />
<param
name="ShowDiplay"
value="False" />
<param
name="AutoRewind"
value="True" />
<embed
width="320"
height="260"
hspace="320"
filename=
"VIDFILE"
autostart="True"
showcontrols="True"
showstatusbar="True"
showdiplay="True"
autorewind="True"
border="1"
src=
"VIDFILE"></embed> </object>
</p>

Play around with the sizing and what not to suit your needs.

you will also need to double check with your web host as well, as even though you can do it - if it's classed as streaming some hosts don't like it and will sometimes charge you for it or take it off... only if they are petty - most will ignore it
by the way love your website

Ta very much
and Im pretty sure they're cool with it considering it does let you upload and it has a guide for people just using the normal templates on how to put it up.
