Embedding Movies (Flash 3) I will show you two ways to embed movies, both depending on what you need. This will work on all browsers that have the Flash plug-in. If the plug-in is not installed on the browser, it should prompt the visitor and send them to the Macromedia page to install it. Embed a Movie on a page What to do Copy the tag above and paste it into your HTML source code exactly where you need your movie. Enter the width and height of the movie into the tag like I have above. Just replace my dimensions with yours. Now enter the location of your movie on your website were it says "yourmovie.swf" in red. Sample: Embed Movie as a whole site ( Full Screen ) What to do Almost the same as above but now we will have our movie full screen. Copy the code above and paste it in a blank/New HTML file as the movie will become the only media showing, like a intro page or a entire interactive web site showing only the Flash project it self. I have made the area red where you will need to enter the location of your own movie file. There are also some nice features in the tag • Loop="false" ( Movie wont loop and becomes turned off ) • Loop="true" ( Movie will loop and becomes turned on ) • quality="best" ( Movie will start at highest quality possible ) • width="100%"height=100%. You will need set your width and height at a percentage for stretching the movie to full screen and having it resize automatically regardless of the browser window size. For sample click here.
