Watching MPEG movies

« on: January 11, 2003, 08:58:00 AM »

Let's start by saying that I haven't been here for about a month and a half. Would like to say hi to Stephan!!!! He helped me alot last time...

This is the problem. Have very basic experience..Learning as I go through. Working with Frontpage 2000.

Basically in the page of "Pictures" go to Videos- then pick any video. You see what I'm saying?? No video comes up- why????

The funny thing is that when I'm in frontpage and press "Preview" the video does show... Now when I updated the page - no video shows except for the pic that I posted in which I wanted my video to show..

Does anyone understand what I'm talking about???

Please help.

webpage is www.bolivia-live.com

the problem page is :
http://www.bolivia-live.com/videos.htm
-click on a pic-will take you to the page where I wanted the video to show along with comments.

thank you

Hi,

There are two problems that I can see.

The first is that the code is linking to a file which is on your personal computer.

The code below shows what I mean:

code:

 <img border="0" src="vidcow.jpg" dynsrc="../../Program%20Files/KaZaA/My%20Shared%20Folder/cow%20humping%20fall%20over%20(comedy).mpeg" start="fileopen" loop="5" align="left" loopdelay="9" width="150" height="150">

It is looking for "Program Files/KaZaA/My Shared Folder/cow humping fall over (comedy).mpeg

I don't know where you have uploaded the video to on your lunarpages account, but you should be linking to that instead.

The other problems is that Frontpage has not created standard HTML.

I've got a feeling that the code will only work with internet explorer, or the very latest browsers. I have not see the "dynsrc" bit before on an image.

I would do this instead:

code:

 <a href="myvideo.mpg"><img border="0" src="vidcow.jpg" border="0" width="150" height="150"></a>

That would make a link to myvideo.mpg with the picture of a cow. "border=0" takes away the border that you would normally get when creating a link with an image.

Thanks Stephan for answering even though I have no clue with what you mean. I'm guessing you mean that I have to uplaod the videos to LunarPages? As you know I'm not pretty good at that.

Where do I start. ???
