Playing a video

[Michael A. Roberts]

When someone types my URL, how would I make that URL point to a MySpace video
then redirect to a homepage?

The URL is www.paulimperatore.com. I also have some slow loading pages.
Any suggestions on how to speed things up without deleting anything?

You need to do a 301 redirect in the .htacces

Thanks. I have another dumb question. I have a song stored as a Windows
Media File that I would like to have play when the page loads. I do not see
the option to do that. I've added sound effects to pages before but never a
song.

How would I add that? Please give as much detail as possible. Thanks.

Be aware that -

1. Pages that play music onload are exceptionally annoying.
2. WMV files are not universally supported by browsers
3. It's a lot of work for no benefit

I'd suggest you spend this time and effort on validating your page's code!

Hi Murray

First, thanks for your response. I'm kind of a "non techie" so I'm not sure
if I am in the right forum or not. How do you validate the code on a page??
Sounds like is too much to explain in an email but if you can exlpain it,
that would really help.

If it is much too much to explain, can you point me in the direction of a
resource that would explain it?

Thanks.
