[Nfb-web] html script to load video

Wed Dec 3 06:31:45 UTC 2008

Hi Milton,

You don't need anything except the following html to play a WMV file.  When 
double-clicked, the Open / Save / Cancel dialog opens and the user has the 
choice to see it now or let it download first if on a slow connection.

------------
<div align="center">
     <a href="video/2008-07-27_pour.wmv">May 4th - "Pouring it 
On", Video version</a>
</div>
------------

That's the actual code on my church website for the video of a sermon that I 
made last May.   It consists of a number of pictures in a slideshow during 
the sermon. I used Muvee V6 to produce it.  (I am sighted, for those of you 
who don't know me).  You can try it for yourself at 
http://www.ststeve.org/sermons.htm.

I precede the link with the following instructions / html so that users may 
also download whatever player they may need for either PC or Mac:

-------------
The following is the most recent available sermon which also contains video; 
that being several photographs repeating throughout the sermon. This is a 
Microsoft WMV file, playable on a PC. It is also playable on a Mac if <a

target="_blank">Windows Media Components for Quicktime</a> is installed for 
the QuickTime player or if <a

target="_blank">Windows Media Player 7.1 for Mac</a> or <a

target="_blank"> Real Player for Mac OS X</a> is installed (all free 
downloads).<br><br>

I hope this is what you need.

Warm regards,

Don...
