Insert flash into Publisher

**RyanInt** · 09-06-2009

I am a newbie in Publisher. I want to know how to insert a flash video in Publisher? I tried copy and paste in Publisher but that didn't worked. Is it possible? Can you guide me some simple solution for this?

Use Publisher HTML Code Fragment object to insert the flash files. It is located on the Publisher "Insert" menu. Now draw the object on your page just like you do for a standard text box. The created box should be of same size as that of the video file. Now insert the HTML code (using <html> tag and not the <body> tag) and insert the video file in this code. Use the <object> tag to insert the file.

You can even embed the flash video using <embed> tag like this:

HTML Code:

<embed id="FlashVideo" src="your_video_goes_here" style="video_dimension" allowFullScreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> </embed>

Just remember that you need to provide the correct link in the source to avaiod any problems. For this you can either upload the flash file on the web server and give the files URL or use some free online storing sites like YouTube.
