QuickTime and FrontPage - 5/4/2007 4:30:01   
Hi all.

I have tried to put a QT movie onto my FP web site, but although it shows when I preview it in IE7, it doesn't show now I've published the site :)

As it's the first time I've ever done this, I "cribbed" the code from another site I found which did what I wanted. To be honest, I have no idea what the "object classid" is/means (which probably means that's my problem!). Anyway, this is the code on my web page -

<object classid="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" codebase="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab" height="300" width="400">
<param name="cache" value="true">
<param name="src" value="golf.MOV">
<param name="autoplay" value="true">
<param name="controller" value="false">
<embed height="300" pluginspage="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/" src="golf.MOV" type="video/quicktime" width="400" controller="false" autoplay="true" cache="true">
</object>


Any idea what I'm doing wrong? Thanks all.

usually this sort of issue is a path problem - can we see the online version it'll be easier to diagnose exactly what's wrong.

Sure, it's at http://www.pengweb.co.uk/sports%202.htm - go to the very bottom of the page and click on the large picture.

(I think there might be a problem with QuickTime - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=883810&tstart=135 seems to be the same sort of thing)

Thanks again

I think Tail is right, the script is trying to run a file called golf.MOV which is in the root directory of your site.

<param name="src" value="golf.MOV">

I tried to locate it manually and got a 404 not found.

First make sure the file is called golf.MOV and that the extension is in uppercase, exactly the same. Then check exactly where it is.

You've also got a load of stuff at the bottom of the page which isn't right

		<td width="865"> <p align="left">      <a href="samples.htm"> <img id="ab:despengw:2:53231.19" alt="Designed by
PengWeb" src="images/alphabutton/despengw/Designed_by_PengWeb.gif" onload="var image=new Image();image.src='images/alphabutton/despengw/Designed_by_PengWeb-over.gif';" onmouseover="document.images['ab:despengw:2:53231.19'].src='images/alphabutton/despengw/Designed_by_PengWeb-over.gif'" onmouseout="document.images['ab:despengw:2:53231.19'].src='images/alphabutton/despengw/Designed_by_PengWeb.gif'" border="0" hspace="0" width="102" height="40" /></a></td>
		</tr>
	</table>
</div>

</body>

In the pop up the code is looking for golf.mov different case entirely.

The fact it's in a pop up may not be helping matters, if you still get trouble try just letting QT open by itself in the page.

What exactly are these in each page?

<meta id="ab:despengw" content="C:\Documents and Settings\Teresa\My Documents\My AlphaButton Files\Projects\despengw.prj" />
<meta id="ab:Sample-sport" content="C:\Documents and Settings\Teresa\My Documents\My AlphaButton Files\Projects\Sample-sport.prj" />
