HTML - Black Background When Centering/embedded Video
Hi there,
I know nothing formal about HTML, hence the code below being converted from an Open Office file. Hopefully it is readable - it is some declarations, a body with maybe 10 links in it, and then an embedded video code from Exposure Room. I have the alignment how I want it, but the background-black in the body doesn't work any more. Is anyone able to show me how to keep the center alignments I have but also switch the background of the whole page to black? It works if I take out the <center> tags but then everything is left aligned, which I don't like. Any help would be appreciated, cheers, Tony Code: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1 plus MathML 2.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/MathML2/dtd/xhtml-math11-f.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><!--This file was converted to xhtml by OpenOffice.org - see http://xml.openoffice.org/odf2xhtml for more info.--><head profile="http://dublincore.org/documents/dcmi-terms/"><meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="application/xhtml+xml; charset=utf-8"/><title xml:lang="en-US">- no title specified</title><meta name="DCTERMS.title" content="" xml:lang="en-US"/><meta name="DCTERMS.language" content="en-US" scheme="DCTERMS.RFC4646"/><meta name="DCTERMS.source" content="http://xml.openoffice.org/odf2xhtml"/><meta name="DCTERMS.creator" content="Tony Wilkes"/><meta name="DCTERMS.issued" content="2011-04-17T19:59:38.83" scheme="DCTERMS.W3CDTF"/><meta name="DCTERMS.contributor" content="Tony Wilkes"/><meta name="DCTERMS.modified" content="2011-04-17T20:31:54.51" scheme="DCTERMS.W3CDTF"/><meta name="DCTERMS.provenance" content="" xml:lang="en-US"/><meta name="DCTERMS.subject" content="," xml:lang="en-US"/><link rel="schema.DC" href="http://purl.org/dc/elements/1.1/" hreflang="en"/><link rel="schema.DCTERMS" href="http://purl.org/dc/terms/" hreflang="en"/><link rel="schema.DCTYPE" href="http://purl.org/dc/dcmitype/" hreflang="en"/><link rel="schema.DCAM" href="http://purl.org/dc/dcam/" hreflang="en"/><base href="."/><style type="text/css"> @page { } table { border-collapse:collapse; border-spacing:0; empty-cells:show } td, th { vertical-align:top; font-size:12pt;} h1, h2, h3, h4, h5, h6 { clear:both } ol, ul { margin:0; padding:0;} li { list-style: none; margin:0; padding:0;} <!-- "li span.odfLiEnd" - IE 7 issue--> li span. { clear: both; line-height:0; width:0; height:0; margin:0; padding:0; } span.footnodeNumber { padding-right:1em; } span.annotation_style_by_filter { font-size:95%; font-family:Arial; background-color:#fff000; margin:0; border:0; padding:0; } * { margin:0;} .P1 { font-size:12pt; font-family:Trebuchet MS; writing-mode:page; text-align:center ! important; color:#b3b3b3; } .T2 { font-size:10pt; } <!-- ODF styles with no properties representable as CSS --> { } </style></head><center><body dir="ltr" style="max-width:21.001cm;margin-top:2cm; margin-bottom:2cm; margin-left:2cm; margin-right:2cm; background-color:#000000; "><p class="P1">Lying Down</p><p class="P1">*</p><p class="P1"><a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/index.xhtml">Trailer</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part1med">Part 1</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part2med">Part 2</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part3med">Part 3</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part4med">Part 4</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part5med">Part 5</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part6med">Part 6</a> * <a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/part7med">Part 7</a> * Download</p><p class="P1"><span class="T2"/></p><p class="P1"><a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/indexlow"><span class="T2">Lowest quality</span></a><span class="T2"> * </span><a href="http://www.lyingdown.co.uk/indexhigh"><span class="T2">Highest Quality</span></a></p><p class="P1"><span class="T2"/></p><p class="P1">*</p> <object id="xrPf8470a83ede543789fc18d1556be86e9" width="640" height="360" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://exposureroom.com/flash/XRVideoPlayer2.swf?domain=exposureroom.com/&assetId=f8470a83ede543789fc18d1556be86e9&size=md&titleColor=%23ffffff"><param name="movie" value="http://exposureroom.com/flash/XRVideoPlayer2.swf?domain=exposureroom.com/&assetId=f8470a83ede543789fc18d1556be86e9&size=md&titleColor=%23ffffff" /><param name="allowNetworking" value="all" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="True" /><param name="wmode" value="opaque" /></object><div><div class="viewOnXRDiv"><a href="http://exposureroom.com/f8470a83ede543789fc18d1556be86e9" class="viewOnXRLink" title="Lying Down trailer by Tony Wilkes - View it on ExposureRoom" target="_blank">View on ExposureRoom</a></div></div> </body></center> </html> Similar TutorialsI assume that this should not be in the Flash section as it seems as the threads there are discussing problems within the Flash program, not putting Flash videos on your webpage. Anyway, I put my flash video on my website and it has black borders on the left and right sides of the video. I would like to remove them, but I don't know a whole lot about flash video parameters. Could anyone tell me how to do this?

I'm using the CIT embedded video generator code here so I don't know it as well as I should but are there some ways to fix those problems with it or is it just going to be like that with embedded windows media player?... Codeguru Is there any way to embed windows media video into html without using active-x. This would be for a computer without administrative priveledges (unable to download active-x components) to view video through an html interface. I can only think of using a direct link to the file, which would require the player to be used externally. I think any embedded call up of the player will need to use embed or object tags, which need active-x (as far as I can tell, and my testing has shown) Any light shone on this black math would be greatly appreciated-- Thanks, Tim I would like to include on my website streaming HD video not unlike Youtube or Vimeo. How hard is this? Both in terms of the video compression and the coding for the site. Where do I look for info to help me out? I have a very basic knowledge of HTML and CSS, but not much else. Are the videos on Youtube and Vimeo flash? I am not sure if "streaming" or "embedded" is the proper term for what I want to do. I'll be starting with mp4 files, since those are best for encoding HD... I use x264 codec and encode 720p @ 2.5Mbps for great quality and decent filesize. But somehow Youtube compresses it even further. Example, I had a 5 minute 720p mp4 file that was around 100MB. I uploaded it to Youtube and it is now available in HD and looks pretty good. But if I watch my network connections as I am streaming it, only 20MB transfers... which means they compressed it 5 times better than I had it! That is definitely important because if I try to have streaming HD and it's not compressed enough, it won't be watchable for most people. Hello! I'm developing a site for a local comedy troupe and was wondering what would be the best way to go about this. Here is the draft: www.djhmusic.com/tlk Listed at the top left are each of the troupe's sketches. I want to be able to click on, for example, "Mood Rings" and have the youtube embedded video play in that video window where the player graphic is. The embed code for the Mood Rings video on youtube is: <code> <!--Begin <object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/INuh84DCJbM"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/INuh84DCJbM" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object> --end> </code> What's the best/easiest way to do this? iframes? Thanks so much, Dan Hi all, I'd like some help with the coding so that I can wrap text around embedded video. I'm not a genious at HTML so if you could make it easy to understand that would be great. Thanks in advance. Hello guys, I have embedded this video on simple html page. I want that video to float in the middle of the screen.

After that the page works fine but when I load for the first time the page I don't see the video. 3) Using the last version of the Safari and the Firefox browser I have to reload two times the html page before to view the embedded video and after I have a problem viewing the video. The message is that the format video is not supported. Could you please help me to solve the problem. Which is the correct way to use the embedded code starting from youtube website ? How can I debug the issue ? Thanks a lot. Alright, so on my webpage I want a black background and then have the iframes white.

Code: <body topmargin=0 leftmargin=0 background="back.png"> Hello, all...this is my first time on the site. I am a newb when it comes to HTML etc...I won't lie. I know just about nothing when it comes to websites. I'm a graphic designer, and i created a background for my website I'm trying to: (A) Stop the tiling of my background image... (B) Center the image I bought some books on HTML and they're pretty good. I don't have any trouble following them. I started reading about STYLE SHEETS and it seems this is the way to go. I've read about EXTERNAL, INTERNAL, INLINE and I would like to use the EXTERNAL method...but I don't know how to: (A) Make a link to my style sheet for the background image to be centered (B) Writing the style sheet, so that it centers and doesn't tile my image... Pllease, any help that you could give me, would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you. http://www.cahoonzcreationz.com Hey all, Is it possible to shut down video screen automatically after displaying the video? I mean, after video is over, is it possible to hide the video screen? ( I tried to use embed tag... <embed src="myVideo" autostart="true" /> ??) Thanks, Doron I am trying to remove the black borders or lines around my friends website and cant seem to do it? any ideas http://www.lavonnebeauty.com/ Hello, Thefallenshadow has been helping me with my website and introducing me to CSS because I am new to web design, but unfortunely he has not replied to my PM so I am posting here for help. I was about to start adding images of my work to my website, however it appears the website background images are not aligned correctly, even after I made sure they are the exact same pixel dimensions as the actual images. If someone could download my website below and view the index.html page (or view picture below), you will notice thin black horizontal lines in several places. The UFO picture in the corner is also not correct. These black lines appear in Internet Explorer, FrontPage and Dreamweaver but do not show inside Firefox. What's causing this? I am not sure how to fix it. http://homepage.ntlworld.com/stephan.../Portfolio.zip Thanks |
