| The
saying goes, "A picture is worth a thousand words".
You already are aware of how graphics can be used
to create compelling web pages. This chapter introduces types
of media used on the web; including audio, video, and streaming
media.
Appropriate use of movies and sound on your web
pages can make them more interesting and informative.
Sources of these media types, the XHTML code needed
to place the media on a web page, and suggested uses of the
media are discussed. |
| Changes
to Internet Explorer (IE6v.02) |
Due to a lawsuit,
Microsoft is changing the way that certain content, such as
applets and ActiveX Objects (such as Flash files, Quicktime
movies, or streaming medai), is displayed when using Internet
Explorer. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/ieupdate/
for their take on this topic.
Visit Macromedia,
Apple,
and Real
Networks for solutions and code samples for adapting to
this new "feature".

Playing the sparky.mpg Video? |
The
sparky.mpg video was created using a Sony Mavica digital camera.
This device creates videos using the .mpg file extension.
However, this file extension is not well-supported by plug-ins
for video formats.
If your combination of brower and plug-ins does not display
sparky.mpg, substitute it with the sparky.mov
(Apple Quicktime format) file found on the student disk.
Note: Apple Quicktime Pro was used to convert the sparky.mpg
file to a .mov format. |
