Young women at the front …. Battling Brits

 

1. Peiper -

   FIFY!

   FIFY means “Fixed it for ya” Please always triple check via preview and code examination to make sure that videos are set to NOT auto-start. This one was tricksy - it has two layers of parameters, both of which had to be set to not run on loading.

   Look up Flashvars autostart and Flashvars autorun and How to regarding shockwave. Flashvars start parameter is not run/not run, it’s merely the position indicator for the video (ie &start=0 means start at the beginning. It’s just a pointer).

   Embedded videos are fine, but the ones that start running automatically slow the blog page to a crawl.

   Nice post otherwise. I rarely see young women doing their laundry in a cement mixer.

2. Drew ,, Thanks.  I never ran into that one before so didn’t see it. The auto start. Although to be honest, if I had, I would not have known there would be a problem. Do now tho.
