What i mean is that some site has a rating things for the user to rate what every they want, like a video files. That's a fairly complicated thing to do. You definitely would require a database backend. Would you track every vote? Or every vote that comes from a unique IP address? Or have a particular user-based SYSTEM so that only votes from registered users are counted? Etc. It's a big programming job - possibly four or five days worth of solid coding.OK thank so: >Embedded Media HTML Generator< Would open the video in a new browser or their media player? I dont want to embed the video in a browser. Thank YouA link like <a href='http://your.domain.com/videoname.rm' target='_blank'>click here[/url] should launch the video in the relevant program. That does depend on the configuration of the user's browser however. Which browser are you using?IE 6.0 & Mozilla Firefox I yes i have try that code it STILL making the user to download Embedded Media HTML Generator it saying that i have to give a server name which i ant got one yet and does Embedded mean having a video open in the browser it self which i dont want it to do. The toturial i have come across doesnt work. I want all user to view my video in a media player or anykind of player or browser Please help me Robpomeroy Thank youI'm AFRAID you cannot force programs to run on a user's PC. Either video is embedded, or you have to let their browser handle the file as it chooses. It will only load up an external program if (a) it KNOWS what kind of a file it's dealing with and (b) it is configured to run the corresponding program automatically. You do not, as web designer, have control over that. What you can do, is use the embedded method, but embed the video into a separate popup window.Yeah i guess that is the only way Thanks
