Hello all.  I am about to embark on uploading a video to my website.  The video is presently in 'avi' format. (I also have it in Windows Movie Maker format) I use FrontPage for my website which is located at www.SaveGreenwichVillage.com  Can anyone advise me on what html code to insert on a page in order for the video to be viewed?  Thank you very much.

Insert menu... Web Component... Advanced Controls... ActiveX Controls... Next... Windows Media Player... Finish.

Notes:

ActiveX controls may not work for non-Microsoft browsers or for users with Internet security set to "High".

Windows Media files may not work on non-Windows computers. QuickTime and Flash are more universally playable.

FrontPage has been discontinued.
If you plan to stay with FrontPage, consider upgrading to FrontPage 2003 now.

Search the Microsoft KB for error messages:

A way to insert the video and use the browser's default player is

Code:
<p>
<embed src="videofile.wmv" width="320" height="285" align="center">
<noembed>A Media Player is required.</noembed><br>

Click the Play button if necessary to start the video.<br>
Double-click the video for full screen view.</p>

Hi,

I just embed a video in fp using youtube.com to host it...then it was just like inserting a picture, and using the code.

Very easy, plays well, no lag time..

I agree.  Toss a URL on the video and you have a little free advertisement as well on YouTube. Wink
