To embed QuickTime videos with FrontPage, follow these steps:
In order to embed QuickTime videos in FrontPage you must manually enter
the HTML code into the page. QuickTime videos often have a .mov
extension, however they may also have a .3gp extension.
1. Move your cursor to the location that you wish to place the QuickTime
media file.
2. From the main application window, choose the "Insert" menu item, then
choose "Web Component..." A new window should pop up.
3. In the left side of the window, choose "Advanced Controls" under the
"Component type" column. Then select "HTML" under the "Choose a control:"
column.
4. Click Finish and a new window should open up.
5. This window will ask you to insert the HTML markup. In the window,
insert the following:
<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"
codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab"
width="[MOVIE-WIDTH]" height="[MOVIE-HEIGHT]">
<param name="src" value="[MOVIENAME.MOV]" />
<param name="controller" value="true" />
<param name="autoplay" value="true" />
<!--[if !IE]>-->
<object type="video/quicktime"
data="[MOVIENAME.MOV]"
width="[MOVIE-WIDTH]" height="[MOVIE-HEIGHT]">
<param name="autoplay" value="true" />
<param name="controller" value="true" />
</object>
<!--<![endif]-->
</object>a
Your HTML will differ slighly as you will be required to change the values
below:
[MOVIENAME.MOV] = This should be the full location to the movie name. If
you placed the movie "mymovie.mov" in a "movie" directory or folder, this
value would be: movie/mymovie.mov
[MOVIE-HEIGHT] = This is the height of the movie file, it should just be a
number.
[MOVIE-WIDTH] = This is the width of the movie file, it should just be a
number.
Note, there are two locations in the code block for each value that needs
to be changed. The code above will validate as XHTML-1.0-STRICT and works
within all standards compliant browsers, as well as Internet Explorer.
6. Once your HTML code has been customized to fit your movie location and
size, click on the OK button.
