I am trying to find a way to view my avi files ( they are on my web server not youtube)
I read that web designer 6 can do that ( so I bought it, GREAT product !!)
can anyone give me a tip to get started. the files will reside on the server.
thank

Hi Ron,
I'm thinking you want to have the .avi files embedded in your page rather than have the visitor's media player open on their computer.
1. Create a placeholder for your .avi movie.
2. Copy the code below.
3. change the text shown in red to the name of your .avi file.
Code:<object id="MediaPlayer1" CLASSID="CLSID:22d6f312-b0f6-11d0-94ab-0080c74c7e95" codebase="http://activex.microsoft.com/activex...ion=5,1,52,701" standby="Loading Microsoft Windows® Media Player components..." type="application/x-oleobject" width="280" height="256"> <param name="fileName" value="index_htm_files/spade_ani.avi"> <param name="animationatStart" value="true"> <param name="transparentatStart" value="true"> <param name="autoStart" value="true"> <param name="showControls" value="true"> <param name="Volume" value="-450"> <embed type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" src="index_htm_files/spade_ani.avi" name="MediaPlayer1" width=280 height=256 autostart=1 showcontrols=1 volume=-450> </object>

Is there a particular reason you are using avi?
Unless you have a particular purpose in using .avi files, they are not suitable for web playback. Those attempting to view will not have a very good experience.
Works great except as soon as I load the web page the files start playing. Is there a way to set it so I have to click something to start the file playing. I am trying to do a video jukebox. I have to play five videos. Thanks for all the help. I am going to find out how to create a flash file from my avi's

Ron change the autoStart value to False.

Those aren't Xara WD or Xtreme created HTML pages Raymond so would be of very little use to the OP unless you offered to create a small tutorial about creating select menu forms and how to embed them into a WD6 page then link each menu entry to the same video placeholder.
