Hello,
I am a teacher and I use CoffeeCup Software to design both my classroom web site and our school web site. Our district requires the main html page of our building site to be on the district server, but I have all the picture files and other pages on my server.Teachers are not allowed to upload to the district server, so I must send files to someone the district hires for them to be uploaded.
My students created a video that we want to post on the front page of our building site. I do not know how to change the script to tell the program to go to my server for the files it needs to run since the script CoffeeCup provides needs all of the files in the same location as the html file.
Here is how I want the page to look (this is currently uploaded it to my server )
http://www.mrsreber.com/10penn.html
and this is how it looks uploaded to the district server - there is just a blank space where the video should be.
http://www.readingsd.org/schools/elemen … index.html
Can anyone tell me how to change the script on the main html page to tell it to go to my server www.mrsreber.com for the files it needs to run the video?
Thank you!
Kim

Hi Mrs. Reber,
there a couple ways of doing this:
1 way is with an iframe on the page that the school is using. this would be the code:
the second way is more involved you would need to change this part of the code (<param name="movie" value="smencilsad.swf"/> ) to ( <param name="movie" value="http://www.mrsreber.com/smencilsad.swf"/> )
And this ( <embed style="WIDTH: 440px; HEIGHT: 360px; " src="http://www.mrsreber.com/smencilsad.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff"
name="CoffeeCup" scale="noscale" salign="lt" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object> )
to this
( <embed style="WIDTH: 440px; HEIGHT: 360px; " src="http:/www.mrsreber.com/smencilsad.swf" quality="high" bgcolor="#ffffff"
name="CoffeeCup" scale="noscale" salign="lt" align="middle" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" /></object>
all that was added was your url http://www.mrsreber.com
the examples I have are here http://myofficialnewbie.com/VSD/
you may of course need to adjust the sizes but they work well.

HI Mrs Reber,
It might be best to use the iframe suggestion.....
( <iframe src="http://www.mrsreber.com/smencilsad.html" width="400" height="380" frameborder="0" scrolling="no"></iframe> ) "It's A Smart Person That Asks"

I agree with Bruzer, using the second option may end up showing the video without the player (I tried it and you can see it at http://www.mrziegler.com/mrsreber.html.

I changed the code to the 2nd example (before I read your later post). I can see the video of the kids fine, but the player is not all there like you thought. I will try the i frame way and see what happens.

Kim, if you look at http://www.mrziegler.com/mrsreber.html, I have the code the iframe below the original. You can see the player just fine.
