How do I insert an FLV using the CoffeeCup HTML editor? Dreamweaver is giving me some odd code that is not playing nice with our corporate servers and I thought I would give CoffeeCup a try to see if I get better results. I cannot find any option in the insert menu for adding video. Am I missing something?

Any help is appreciated!

Thanks!

You need to play the flv in a swf container. You would use the <object> and <embed> tags.
CoffeeCup... Yeah, they are the best!

You can use Web Video Player for this. Just add your FLV into that program and you are all set.

FLV cannot be played directly from browser. If you need to play it from your website, one the most convenient solution is indeed CC Web Video player. Or you can upload the video on Youtube and play it from there.

I second, or third the CC program. Works great.
