quicktime plug in

R

Red Spider Girl

Ok...I am new to this...so be nice to me.

I want to have an .mov on my site. I want you to be able
to click on the link to play the movie and I want the
movie to come up on a new page that is the size of the
movie (120x160) I don't want a whole page come up. How
do I do this? How do I change the size of the page to be
JUST the size of the quicktime plugin? Please don't send
me to the quicktime site and trudge through their embed
page. It's greek to me.

Thanks for your help.

Create a JavaScript popup window and launch your media in that window
For the popup see the Spawn FP addin at http://www.jimcoaddins.com/

OK.....

for starters you may need a javascript that opens a window (with mouse click)
where you can specify the size of the window (in your case to the size of your
movie).

try this site for cut and paste code:
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex8/popwin.htm
you have to set a few options first but the site generates the code - you just
cut and paste into the appropriate sections <head> and <body> as per the
instructions.

or this one:
http://javascript.internet.com/generators/popup-window.html

or even this:
http://wsabstract.com/popwin/index.shtml

next you have to create the html file that you're linking to where the file is to
open in the new popup window.

In this new file you will need to insert component and choose quicktime (or
whatever - not really familiar with this part)...,..

Make sure the window has the 'x' close button visible or add further javascript
like a link such as:

<a href="#" onclick="window.close()";>Close Window</a>

Hope this gives you a start anyway.
