Editing the HTML code |
|
Help & Manual automatically generates the HTML code needed to embed and play media files in HTML-based output formats (HTML Help and WebHelp). Normally you will not need to touch this code but there may be special circumstances where you want to change or edit the code for your own purposes.
eBooks: Note that although you can play Flash video and animation files in Windows Exe eBooks (other video formats are not supported) this is handled by special internal routines. Editing the HTML embedding code will not make any difference in your eBooks output. Video is not supported at all in ePub eBooks.
1.Insert a movie in your topic and double-click on it to display the Edit Video dialog.
2.Click on the Embed Code tab and select the I want to enter the embedded HTML code manually option.
3.This displays the code that would normally be entered automatically.
4.Edit the code or replace it with your own code and click on OK.
Note that you need to be familiar with writing HTML code manually to use this function. Any changes you make are entirely your own responsibility, Help & Manual will not parse or check your code in any way!
If you enter additional file or image references in your code the compiler will not know about the files you are referring to and will not automatically include them in your output. To solve this problem add these external files to the Baggage Section – then they will be included in your HTML output automatically.
