is it possible to have an embeded video on a web page, and have text wrapped around it, like you can with say an image, and wrap the text around it

been racking my brains but i cant remember if you can do it or not

Yes, it's possible to embed video into a web page - practically anywhere you like. Have a mooch around www.apple.com/trailers/ , choose a movie and look at the source code of the pages with the videos embedded to see how its done.

Sample code:

<OBJECT CLASSID="clsid:02BF25D5-8C17-4B23-BC80-D3488ABDDC6B" WIDTH="240" HEIGHT="152" CODEBASE="http://www.apple.com/qtactivex/qtplugin.cab#version=6,0,2,0">
			<PARAM NAME="controller" VALUE="FALSE">	
			<PARAM NAME="type" VALUE="video/quicktime">
			<PARAM NAME="autoplay" VALUE="true">
			<PARAM NAME="target" VALUE="myself">
			<PARAM NAME="src" VALUE="somefile.mov">
			<PARAM NAME="HREF" VALUE="[PUT_LINK_HERE]">
			<PARAM NAME="pluginspage" VALUE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/indext.html">
			<EMBED WIDTH="240" HEIGHT="152" CONTROLLER="FALSE" SRC="somefile.mov" HREF="[PUT_LINK_HERE]mov" type="video/quicktime" TARGET="myself" BGCOLOR="#000000" BORDER="0" PLUGINSPAGE="http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/indext.html"></EMBED></OBJECT>

sorry my message actually made the wrong point, what I wanted to do was embed the video on the right hand side - that was done

but also to have text wrap around it, as if the video were an image - couldnt do that

until i played with it some more, what I had to do was in a table cell, where the text was, is to create a table within that cell, that jsut contains the video, and then the text would wrap around it nicely

so thanks Bard for the pointer but I got it sorted yay me
