Re: Embeding Video into A Webpage

I know this may seem very "elementary" to you.. but I really could use some info on this subject...

I have my site all set up, but my videos are NOT playing. I have tried putting the FLVs directly into the HTML two different ways.. by dragging and dropping (where you get the box asking how you want your video to appear and play), and by the menu. I MUST be missing a step here...

When I read your post, I did an experiment, and dragged the .swf file over into the HTML box, and the thing actually PLAYED... except.. it has no control bar under it, and it's automatically playing when the website pulls up, which is not my intention.

Also, a huge box shows up around it which was the background from flash.

Well, I've probably given way too much info, but I am KNOWING that there is a way to get the .flv to work... when you said to "embed" the swf file into the HTML.

Exactly HOW do you embed a .swf file into the HTML to get the .flv video to work?????

Thanks in advance!!!!
