Just got into web design and have a lot to learn. I am always willing to learn. At the moment I have a lot of projects at hand so please do not be offended when I turn to the forum to get good realiable assistance. Please be mindful if I do something, I would certainly do my best to spread that knowledge.
So from the new lady on the block

Yes, I do. I have two online but am having a problem with one, http://abodeforchildren.org/video.html ,where I have to embed video into the html document. It works fine on my PC but when I asked my friend to check it out for me, it does not play the video on his system. Below is the code I used to embed the video:-

Code: Select all

<OBJECT id='mediaPlayer' width="320" height="285" 
      classid='CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95' 
      codebase='http://activex.microsoft.com/activex/controls/mplayer/en/nsmp2inf.cab#Version=5,1,52,701'
      standby='Loading Microsoft Windows Media Player components...' type='application/x-oleobject'>
      <param name='fileName' value="http://www.abodeforchildren.org/afc.avi">
      <param name='animationatStart' value='true'>
      <param name='transparentatStart' value='true'>
      <param name='autoStart' value="true">
      <param name='showControls' value="true">
      <param name='loop' value="false">
      <EMBED type='application/x-mplayer2'
        pluginspage='http://microsoft.com/windows/mediaplayer/en/download/'
        id='mediaPlayer' name='mediaPlayer' displaysize='4' autosize='-1' 
        bgcolor='darkblue' showcontrols="true" showtracker='-1' 
        showdisplay='0' showstatusbar='-1' videoborder3d='-1' width="320" height="285"
        src="http://www.abodeforchildren.org/afc.avi" autostart="true" designtimesp='5311' loop="true">
      </EMBED>
      </OBJECT>
      </td></tr>
      <!-- ...end embedded WindowsMedia file -->
    <!-- begin link to launch external media player... -->
        <tr><td align='center'>
        <a href="http://www.abodeforchildren.org/afc.avi" style='font-size: 85%;' target='_blank'>Launch in external player</a>
        <!-- ...end link to launch external media player... -->
        </td></tr>
      </table>

Please please kindly assist me.

Okay, even if that so, another friend tried viewing it on Firefox and still cannot see it playing. He has viewed mine cos it's still showing up on my systems.
Is there an error in my code? How can I resolve this problem? Thank you!!!

my previous comment did not have anythign to do with ie r firefox or any other browser...

the code you are using is for windows media player, if your friends are on any other os other than windows xp it's possible the avi codecs are not installed on their computer...

the main program that is used for avi is real player... so possibly you could try this...
change the ID and lass id to these... should fix the problem...

Code: Select all

<OBJECT ID=RVOCX CLASSID="clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA">

or you could try one of the following methods, all can just be put in by themselves unfortunately i dont think they have controls... inwhich you may need to add some buttons...

Code: Select all

<img dynsrc="video.avi" />

Code: Select all

<embed src="video.avi" />

Code: Select all

<object data="video.avi" type="video/avi" />

and then there is the actual real player embedding

Code: Select all

<object classid="clsid:CFCDAA03-8BE4-11cf-B84B-0020AFBBCCFA" width="320" height="285"	id="RVOCX">
<param name="afc.avi" value="http://www.abodeforchildren.org/afc.avi">
<param name="autostart" value="true">
<param name="controls" value="all">
<param name="console" value="video">
<embed type=" audio/x-pn-realaudio-plugin" src="http://www.abodeforchildren.org/afc.avi" width="320" height="285"    autostart="true"    controls="all"    console="video">
</embed>
</object>
