1. Re: Embedding Flash Video manually
Newsgroup_User Nov 2, 2007 9:55 AM (in response to tenorocity)Use Code view. Copy the code from the Flash Generated HTML page between the
<object id.... </object> tags and paste into your DW page where you want
the video to appear.
Upload all required files (swf, flv, images for player skin) into a folder
or path where your DW page will be located.
