I'm trying to include a QuickTime clip into a webpage and not getting far with it. The code I got from an online generator is this:

Code: [ Select ]
<!-- begin embedded QuickTime file... -->
   <table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center">
    <!-- begin video window... -->
    <tr><td>
    <OBJECT classid='clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B' width="500"
    height="285" codebase='http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab'>
    <param name='src' value="ita3d_demoreel_2004-2006">
    <param name='autoplay' value="true">
    <param name='controller' value="true">
    <param name='loop' value="false">
    <EMBED src="ita3d_demoreel_2004-2006" width="500" height="285" autoplay="true"
    controller="true" loop="false" pluginspage='http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/'>
    </EMBED>
    </OBJECT>
    </td></tr>
    <!-- ...end embedded QuickTime file -->
    </table>
  1. <!-- begin embedded QuickTime file... -->
  2.    <table border='0' cellpadding='0' align="center">
  3.     <!-- begin video window... -->
  4.     <tr><td>
  5.     <OBJECT classid='clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B' width="500"
  6.     height="285" codebase='http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab'>
  7.     <param name='src' value="ita3d_demoreel_2004-2006">
  8.     <param name='autoplay' value="true">
  9.     <param name='controller' value="true">
  10.     <param name='loop' value="false">
  11.     <EMBED src="ita3d_demoreel_2004-2006" width="500" height="285" autoplay="true"
  12.     controller="true" loop="false" pluginspage='http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/'>
  13.     </EMBED>
  14.     </OBJECT>
  15.     </td></tr>
  16.     <!-- ...end embedded QuickTime file -->
  17.     </table>


Does it seem plausible? can anyone see any obvious reason why it wouldn't work? (it's not online yet so I cannot give a link)

Shouldn't your source file (src) end in .MOV?

thanks (she said sheepishly). it works.

You should be able to create a streaming version of the movie when you encode it.
