video not running

[McBuff]

I am using a program to produce presentations call Proshow Producer by Photodex. ..when I create for a web program. ..it generates a html code (see below)

<script language="javascript" src="http://www.photodex.com/presenter.js"></script>
<script>
PhotodexObject("ProShow","objectname","webprogram. px",640,480);
PresenterControls("objectname",640);
</script>

I put the code in the html box in my vodahost editor and publish but when I go to my site. . .the photodex view is there but my presentation doesn't appear. I called Photodex and they said that my site needs to be MIME enabled. . .I said. .HUH??. ..

What am I doing wrong?. . .is it me. ..it is Vodahost or is it Photodex? I've tried with .SWF and its the same problem. . .I tried uploading the mpg file and it is HUGE and takes too long. ..Help

Re: video not running

A bit of information for you first.

MIME is Short for Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions, a specification for formatting non-ASCII messages so that they can be sent over the Internet. Many e-mail clients now support MIME, which enables them to send and receive graphics, audio, and video files via the Internet mail system. In addition, MIME supports messages in character sets other than ASCII.

There are many predefined MIME types, such as GIF graphics files and PostScript files. It is also possible to define your own MIME types.

In addition to e-mail applications, Web browsers also support various MIME types. This enables the browser to display or output files that are not in HTML format.

You need to add some extra code to the code you already have. I'm not too clued up on this part though and in a bit of a rush now so hopefully someone else will be able to help you further on this one. I'll have a look when i get home to see if i can find out exactly waht you need to add.
