Solve : html movie code needed for Mac user? |
|
Answer» HI. I created a web site in iWeb 09. I inserted a quicktime movie onto the home page. I'm using a Mac computer (Mac OS 10.5.. To test the web site, I have been viewing the pages through Dreamweaver software. The quicktime movie shows on the home page when testviewed through Safari or Foxfire, but not in IE for Mac (v. 7). I am currently using mp4 or mov files, but I also USED a program called iSkysoft video converter and tried to convert the quicktime movie to a different format, but I can't seem to find a format that will allow the movie to view in both IE and Safari/Foxfire. When viewed in IE, there is a blank SPACE where the movie should be. I can view the HTML code in Dreamweaver (I have a limited knowledge of web design and HTML), so I can change the code by hand in Dreamweaver. The iWeb code for viewing a movie looks like this: I have played with the and codes, but I can't seem to find the right HTML codes that will allow the movie to view in IE. Please help! Thank you. If you just want it to work, got to one of the web sites that host home movies for you. They will provide the code you need to put it on your site. Photo bucket is just one of many.

The iWeb code for viewing a movie looks like this: <script type="text/javascript"><!--writeMovie1();--></script> what do you mean "ie for mac (v7)?" There is no version 7 of IE for mac.Will iWeb work for mac OS X as well? http://www.smallboxweb.comThe last version of Internet Explorer for Mac was 5.2.3, and was released in June 2003. It's so old that the Quicktime embed probably doesn't work in that browser. ANY browser from 2003 probably won't support today's plug-ins (Flash, Quicktime, Silverlight). Don't worry about it. If it works in the other browsers, you should be FINE. If you want, you can check that the most recent version of IE8 on Windows works. But you don't need to try to support IE5.

Quote ANY browser from 2003 probably won't support today's plug-ins (Flash, Quicktime, Silverlight).Flash and Quicktime are apparently a lot older then you realize. I have no idea about silverlight but seriously who uses that outside MS. Quote But you don't need to try to support IE5.Agreed. If somebody is going to go to the trouble of supporting IE5 they may as well support netscape 4 and all sorts of other ancient browsers.I kinda meant TODAYS versions of flash and Quicktime. I doubt you could get Flash 10 to run in IE5... |
