would like a short movie playing on the home page

[martinmarinekeeper]

hi all
did a search but nothing thrown up on movie or video

i would like to have playing in the home page a short movie nothing speciel no hi graphics or anythings

just a 2 mins video stored in my photo bucket

thought it might have been done by thr flash tab when creating a article
so i put the url in a nd it just shows a f in a box ?

how can i do it ?
is it possible to do it i have seen it on some other forums and would like the same idea

dont know what forum it was or platform sorry memory loss with wrapping my head round all this new stuff to learn

good tho  :up:

Wrap the code in html tags.

Example:

Code Select Expand

[html]<Video Code Inserted Here>[/html]

See if that helps.

<embed width="430" height="389" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="http://vid73.photobucket.com/player.swf?file=http://vid73.photobucket.com/albums/i214/bringmein/DSCF4112.flv"></video>
it still comes up as code like above

[martinmarinekeeper]

i have tried all thee of photo buckets codes and know they work just tested them inside the forum as a post

so why is it coming up as a code on the article ??

I'll look into it.. that will work in posts wrapped in tags.

[martinmarinekeeper]

not on home page tho

lol.. no worries.

Okay, that is a standard html Article.. with no edits to the code.
You should be able to center it and just put an Article on the Home Page.
