I am trying to use the JW_player so I can put a flv video on my site. I am using the embed command in my HTML page. The following code assumes the player.swf file is in the same directory as the HTML page (OK so far), but where does the flv file go and what HTML code do I need to actually "play" the video? It seems like something is missing in the following. Any help appreciated.

<embed
src="player.swf"
width="300"
height="300"
allowscriptaccess="always"
allowfullscreen="true"
/>

I am using the embed command in my HTML page.

Bad, bad, bad. Look in the stickies for other, better methods for putting media on your page.

OK, just to cut to the chase, is this the code you recommend?

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash
data="c.swf?path=movie.swf"
width="400" height="300">
<param name="movie"
value="c.swf?path=movie.swf" />
<img src="noflash.gif"
width="200" height="100" alt="" />
</object>

I was really hoping to get something working soon but I can tell this is going to take awhile. I don't even see how this plays flv files - ugh. This is not fun for a newbie.

Yes, using the <object> is better than <embed>.

use the publishers wizard and copy ans paste the returned HTML code:
