Hi everyone,

I'm new to iWeb so please excuse my ignorance... :)

I've used a movie file as a header for my website. The movie file appears on top of all of my pages (I simply duplicated it from page to page so they're exact copies of one another) and it seems to work fine. Even though the file is relatively small, I don't want it to load every time one changes a page.

Is there a way to set the website up so that it links all the headers to the one on my home page?

Thanks in advance,

Vince

If you add a movie to various iWeb pages, iWeb puts a copy of the movie into each page's files. It doesn't use one file for all the pages. That's why it reloads each time.

So what you would have to do is upload the movie to your server (Basic web knowledge base FAQ on my website) and embed it into your pages by using the appropriate code

Codes are found on my site here:

Since this way the same file is used for all the pages the browsers should cache it (remember they already loaded it) and not reload each time. Do far for the theory. You have to test whether it works or not.

Regards,
Cédric
