<embed> tags, but don't do it. make people download it instead. I hate embeds (one of the reasons is because they never even work in firefox so I need to dig in the source code for the url). And <a href is much easier to use, anyway.

I agree with Red on all counts. However, you should wrap the <embed> in the standard <object> to maximise browser compatibility. Unfortunately, <img> will be of no help, and I’m not just saying that because I hate it with a passion.


I don’t have any experiences with embedding video in Web pages, but maybe these links will help:<ul><li> http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40/struct/objects.html#h-13.3</li><li> http://www.webaim.org/techniques/captions/windows/3.php</li><li> http://www.apple.com/quicktime/tutorials/embed.html</li></ul>
EDIT: Wait… Did I just tell you to use a nonstandard element?

Ok so I have decided on what im doing for my site but know what I need to know is how to change the color of links, also I see on some sites that they have their news in one spot and there is a scroll bar in the site how could I do this for my site? Sort of like in my dumb example there but with no bacl background or anything. I just need to find out how to do that I have searched W3schools.com google I come up with nothing.
