Hello Everyone,

I am a Java programmer and I am trying to post some clips of my coding/animations finished programs on my web-site. I tried posting an swf file but the quality was substandard and decided to go with an mp4 file instead. Now, IE explorer will not display the HTML5 video ( kind of want to include IE in my choice of display) and my older code is specifically for an swf player. Can someone PLEASE refer me to something that will undoubtedly work for such a task. Again it is an mp4 file were talking about here... and it is going on my site!!!

To cover all browsers, you will need multiple video formats as there is no one format that all browsers support.

A good rundown can be found here.

Thank you,

I could not get the Object param tags to work properly. Could you or someone recomend a good code for the .mp4 files as they are great samples of my Java work?

What object param tags? Why are you not using the <video> element?
