This page was designed in order to instruct viewers on how to put sound and short movie clips on web pages.
The instructions are pretty easy to follow, but if you have any questions, feel free to e-mail me.
This clip is best viewed with Quicktime 3. To download it, go to the Quicktime sight.
The easiest way to place sound and video on a web page is with the EMBED tag. The purpose of the
EMBED tag is to allow viewers to listen to sound or watch short movie clips on a web page.
If sound and/or movies are placed on a web page, however, they should be kept to a minimum
in order to avoid a slow load time for the page.
- The tag line should read EMBED SRC="filename". This command will work in both Netscape and Explorer and will work for both .wav and .avi files.
- If the size of the object is too small and looks like this
, you will have to increase the width and height of the embedded object. Do this by adding WIDTH="number" and HEIGHT="number" before closing the EMBED SRC tag.
- After embedding an object, various commands may be used to help obtain the desired effect.
- Border allows you to add a border around the embedded object.
- Autostart allows you to determine whether or not the object will start
automatically.
- Loop allows you to determine whether an embedded object will repead or not.
NOTE- Both the Autostart and Loop commands require a "true" or "false" command statement.
For example <...Loop="true"...>
