Re: [WSG] Usability Questions for Quicktime

[Tim Palac]

I've upgraded all the videos on my site to Flash, and there is code (Flash
Satay, amongst others) that works with all browsers and still follows all
standards.  Trust me, this is the way you want to go - my experience with
Quicktime is that the files tend to be bulky, and there's no way they have
the quality that a Flash video file will.  I used to use Windows Media Video
because it had a decent file size, but that got ditched once Flash came
along.

This is the code I use to embed Flash on my site that doesn't give the W3C
Validator any errors:

object classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-44455354
width=400 height=300
   param name=movie value=your.swf /
param name=wmode value=transparent /
   param name=quality value=high /

   !--[if !IE] --
   object data=your.swf width=400 height=300
type=application/x-shockwave-flash
param name=quality value=high /
 param name=wmode value=transparent /
   /object
   !-- ![endif]--
  /object

 2. Is there a different file format which is more universal?

Quicktime movies can be imported into Flash, which has much higher
browser penetration. And there is lots of information available on
embedding flash in a gracefully degradable way.

RE: [WSG] Extra space in IE

[Tim Palac]

Title: Extra space in IE


Tom,After playing around with the CSS and XHTML, it appears that your footer is not clearing your content.I noticed you added br style="clear:right;" / on top of the page and I pasted that in between the main and footer div - the space in the footer is gone now.In fact, just adding br / worked fine. I tried adding the clear: both and display: block styles to #footer in the CSS but that didn't seem to work.Timwww.timpalac.comAIM: TymArtistDate: Thu, 12 Oct 2006 13:54:57 -0400Subject: [WSG] Extra space in IEFrom: [EMAIL PROTECTED]To: wsg@webstandardsgroup.org






Hello list,

http://66.155.251.18/mlinc.com/06/

In IE6 (haven?t checked 5.5 or 7) I am getting extra space below my footer. Anyone see why?

TIA
