Embedding audio or flash in a page
How to insert various media in a web page
You may embed almost any kind of MPEG based audio or video file (mp4, m4a, mp3, etc.) in a page as long as the file is already available online somewhere. If it's not, you may upload the file to this system via Add to folder, File.
Now that the file is online, here's how to embed it in a page.
- Go to the page that contains the audio or video file and copy the URL.
- Navigate to the page in which you wish to embed the file and click Edit.
- In the edit bar, click the HTML icon. You'll see the HTML that comprises your document.
- Find the section of your document in which you wish to place the audio/video and insert the following:
<embed width="640" height="480" src="URL GOES HERE" autoplay="true" loop="false" controller="true"> </embed>
- Replace the text "URL GOES HERE" with the URL you collected in step 1.
- Alter the dimensions of the clip by changing the values of the width="640" height="480" settings.
- You may choose to require the user to click to play the clip by changing autoplay="true" to autoplay="false".
-
Click the HTML icon again to switch back to the regular view.
-
Click Save.
