Question regarding this video site...when using one of these in RSD or HTML editor even...
I get that I add an html element for the html snippet

and I'm thinking I create a custom.css for the css snippet....but...

where would one put the javascript snippet? Does it go in the header? Footer? at the end of the custom.css?

Thanks,

MJ

Hi Mark :)
The Doc Ready goes into the Footer section as far as I am aware, mine is working fine like that and seem to be responsive up until a point then it goes all funny.
I am going to upload it and ask for help LOL

Ok its up at http://bpburgess.coffeecup.com
So try and resize the screen up and down after it hits what 800 600px it gets stuck when you re size it
again, also there is a small white side band on the left what Have I done wrong there :D

Brett,

On my computer there are white bands on both sides when I reduce the width. On my Galaxy Note 4 I have the same but the band on the right is much smaller. Maybe a margin or padding setting.

Also, on my phone the video doesn't load, just a black screen.

**Edit for Brett!!

I had the same problem with the spacing of the white bars (or whatever color bg)...when I put in an html element box it gives the column a margin of 8...change those to 0 and it will stretch across the screen.

I have not been able to get it to work completely either. I have been messing with it using RSD...it looks fine on a desktop but it is supposed to automatically put a "still" of the movie for small devices...that is the class "poster"...it does that because many mobile devices don't (can't) play the movie (unless someone specifically downloads a 3rd party browser or alternate file)...But...I only get the black screen, too.

the code might get corrupt when copy and pasting because if I use my mobile phone and look at their site the movie works??? Maybe they are not sharing all of the code?

I'll keep you posted if I find a way that works (at least works for me).

Good Luck!!

@Ernie thank you ! good to know, as I only looked at it on my PC cheers Mate!

@Mark Outstanding tx mate, I was sure I checked all the margins and padding :( will go look again!

Also the .jpg screenshot is not showing up for me either, so I changed the background from #000 to transparent, at least that way they can see the background colour or Grid BG image.

Yes please keep me in the loop and I will you as well if I have any progress, cheers mate.

Ok re uploaded http://bpburgess.coffeecup.com

Nope not getting the "placeholder".jpg image on my android :( Might try it by hand see if that works.

Ok The standard HTML works Fine! it has something to do with RSD, will ask for help in that forum.
