[Jerome B.]

I've installed Flash Player 9 & My Java 1.5.0 but I can't see videos in plateform like youtube ou myspace video.
But I can see videos in .html page ...
What could be my problem ?
Thank you

How do I incorporate videos in my website please, I know it has something to do with Flash but can't get to grips with it, My WS-FTP programme will not let me upload videos

You can insert Flash SWF files or objects, QuickTime or Shockwave movies, Java
applets, ActiveX controls, or other audio or video objects in a Dreamweaver
document.

To insert a media object in a page:
Place the insertion point in the Document window where you want to insert the
object.
Insert the object by doing one of the following:
In the Common category of the Insert bar, click the Media button and select
the button for the type of object you want to insert.


Select the appropriate object from the Insert > Media submenu.
If the object you want to insert is not a Flash, Shockwave, Applet, or ActiveX
object, use the Netscape Navigator plug-in button (the puzzle piece icon in the
Insert bar) to insert it. For more information, see Inserting Netscape
Navigator plug-in content.
In most cases, a dialog box appears letting you select a source file and
specify certain parameters for the media object.

TIP

To prevent such dialog boxes from appearing, select Edit > Preferences >
General (Windows) or Dreamweaver> Preferences > General (Macintosh) and
deselect the Show Dialog When Inserting Objects option. To override whatever
preference is set for showing dialog boxes, hold down the Control (Windows) or
Option (Macintosh) key while inserting the object. (For example, to insert a
placeholder for a Shockwave movie without specifying the file, hold down
Control or Option and either click the Shockwave button in Media pop-up menu of
the Common Insert bar, or select Insert > Media > Shockwave.)


Complete the Select File or Insert Flash dialog box.
Click OK.
The Object Tag Accessibility Attributes dialog box appears if you have
activated the dialog box in Preferences (see Optimizing the workspace for
accessible page design).



If the Object Tag Accessibility Attributes dialog box appears, complete the
dialog box and click OK.
For more information, see Setting the Object Tag Accessibility Attributes
dialog box options.

The media object appears in the document.

NOTE

If you click Cancel, a media object placeholder appears in the document, but
Dreamweaver does not associate accessibility tags or attributes with it.


To specify a source file, or to set dimensions and other parameters and
attributes, use the Property inspector for each object. For information about
editing accessibility attributes for an object, see Editing accessibility
attributes for media objects.

Dear Richard,
Thank you for your input, I have printed it out and will proceed to have a new fiddle with videos, Much Obliged.
