* Publishing video on Web pages
By Steve Blass
Q: I have two questions about using Dreamweaver and Flash to publish video on Web pages. The first is how can I connect Dreamweaver to a site using a nonstandard SFTP port? The second is how do I convert a Windows movie file to a Flash video and put it in a Web page?
A: To connect to an SFTP server on a nonstandard port in Dreamweaver you place the port number in the FTP Host text box after the host name so that instead of just having “MyFTPHost” in the host field you have “MyFTPHost portnum” with a space between the host name and the port number.
