Hello,

For the first time I've tried to add a video to my website:

<html>
<body>

<embed src="movie.avi"></embed>

</body>
</html>


I have two questions:

1. The movie "jumps" back to the first frame when finished. I want to avoid this and instead show the last frame when the movie is done. Can this be achieved by adding some fancy attributes to the tag?

2. In what way does an object tag differ from an embed tag? Which one is preferable?

Thank you!

Are you talking about frames as in frame sets or as in the last frame of the movie?

Hello Soccer and thanks for you reply.
I'm talking about the last frame of the movie.

Ok, I figured it out. In case anyone else needs a solution this problem, here is what you need to do:

If you are using an <object> tag add the following:
<PARAM NAME="AutoRewind" VALUE="false">

If you are using an <embed> tag add:
autorewind="false"
