Adding .mpg movie to website

Efa · Oct 4, 2004

Hi
I'm having a problem with adding my .mpg movie to my website. All very new to this. Found these 2 sample codes and seems to work the first or second time I view it. However if I try to view it again I find the movie won't open and just get a quicktime icon and then a broken movie reel icon. :-(

-----------------------------------------------
Sample1
<html>
<body>

<br><br>
<a href="Movie.MPG"> Play the Movie</a>
<br><br>

</body>
</html>
-----------------------------------------------
Sample2

<object width="240" height="196"
classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B"
codebase="

http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab">

<param name="src" value="Seals.MPG">
<param name="controller" value="true">
<param name="autoplay" value="false">
<embed src="Seals.MPG" width="240" height="196"
autoplay="false" controller="true"
pluginspage="

http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/">

</embed>
</object>

-----------------------------------------------

I'm not sure if this is a problem with the code or my browser or what. Any help with the correct code or usage would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

What is the URL of the page?
Do the obvious first...
Check that the name used for the src parameter is correct, including the case.
