Can any body help, not me but a client of mine who has a soccer agents web site. He wants to have a button named players and would like when this button is hit to get a list of players names and when you click on a name you get approx 1 min of video showing that player in action. He is on sage which apparently does not support this or so he thinks.
Can anyone walk me through the process of doing this for him, or would it be easier for him just to go with a web gallery.

Thanks in anticipation

Cheers guys
 
try
<a href=&quot; here to see John Doe play soccer</A>

or if your want the movie to be in the page, try using an IFRAME that calls each movie, to that page. [deejay]

Here's a bit more info on how to do this

Use this code in your page, or your clients page rather:

<DIV STYLE=&quot;position:absolute; left:100px; top:100px; width:200px; height:200px; z-index:1&quot;>
<IFRAME SRC=&quot;blank.html&quot; NAME=&quot;IFRAME&quot; WIDTH=&quot;200&quot; HEIGHT=&quot;200&quot; BOTTOMSCROLL=&quot;NO&quot; FRAMEBORDER=&quot;1&quot;>
</IFRAME>
</DIV>
This can go very first in your html coding. It is a layer so it won't nessessary get put after something else you've created. You will want to change the position of where this gets placed as well as the appropriate width and height. Remember make the width in the <DIV> tag the same as the Width in the <IFRAME> tag, and the same for the height.

Then for each link, do the following
<A HREF=&quot;movie1.mov&quot; TARGET=&quot;IFRAME&quot;>MOVIE-1</A><BR>
<A HREF=&quot;movie2.mov&quot; TARGET=&quot;IFRAME&quot;>MOVIE-2</A><BR>
<A HREF=&quot;movie3.mov&quot; TARGET=&quot;IFRAME&quot;>MOVIE-3</A><BR>
<A HREF=&quot;movie4.mov&quot; TARGET=&quot;IFRAME&quot;>MOVIE-4</A><BR>
<A HREF=&quot;movie5.mov&quot; TARGET=&quot;IFRAME&quot;>MOVIE-5</A><BR>
<A HREF=&quot;movie6.mov&quot; TARGET=&quot;IFRAME&quot;>MOVIE-6</A><BR>
If you not want them listed vertically then you could use &nbsp for spacing it horizontally.

Hope this helps. [deejay]
