How to Embed a Video in a Webpage

Having saved your movie file in the appropriate folder where you have your main webpage, you will now need to create a multimedia webpage using the same layout as your other web pages. Please follow the instructions below very carefully. 

Instructions:

1. Open Dreamweaver and define your site. Open your homepage (or any other finished  webpage). Use Save As to create a webpage named “multimedia” 
2. Create a table of say 2 columns by 2 rows. Use a cell which is central enough to allow the end user to view the video as the page is loaded i.e. they should not have to scroll horizontally or vertically.  
3. Copy the script shown below:                                                                                          
4. Go back to Dreamweaver and click within the cell you want the video to appear. Change the  view (top menu) to code.  
5. Where the cursor is blinking is now where you need to paste the code (CTRL V). While still in this view you need to change the bold selections of the code (see above) to the filename  you gave the video. This must include the file extension (wmv). Also, it would help if the name has no spaces in it as this requires additional coding (%20 for every space). 
6. Test the webpage to ensure that it works. Annotate how you embedded this video. Adjust the width and height of the video to make it more attractive within the webpage. You will need to change the title of the webpage along with any headers and text on this page to suit the content. Also, change the ShowControls condition to “True” and ensure that this works. Annotate the changed ShowControls condition 
7. Create an additional button along with its rollover for this multimedia page 
8. Adjust the navigation bar on all of your webpages to accommodate this additional webpage. 
9. Annotate the adjustment of this navigation bar for the inclusion of an additional set of buttons as well as any errors detected which you have now fixed.
