How do I fire a URL into QuickTime from a web page?

Looking at the Apple trailer site and I like the way that if you view a HD trailer it loads QuickTime and opens the video straight into QuickTime
Now I assume it's sending the URL of the MOV file to QuickTime to play.
How can I make a link from a HTML page send the URL into QuickTime to replicate the same way to run a video.
At the moment I build "pop up" windows to display movies in, and I think using QuickTime in this way will be better so if someone has popups blocked my movies will still play.
It must be simple to do.
I once did a site for someone that need a podcast and I got it to send it to iTunes. But I cant seem to see how to do the same for a movie to QuickTime

The technique is known as Poster Movies. A tiny image file saved as .mov file that can either act as a "placeholder" (target="myself") or act like a "link" (target="quicktimeplayer").

Free software to help write the proper page code.
Another method is a QuickTime Media Link (.qtl file). These tiny text based files can be placed anywhere in a Web page and will always download (Mac or PC) and will launch the QuickTime Player.

  • How to obtain table data that is hidden from a web page source?

    Hello!
    I have been trying to obain table data from a web page without success. The data can be copy and pasted from the web page but it can´t be found in the web page source.  I prefer NOT to use automated mouse clicks to obtain the data through CTRL-A, CTRL-C and then to the Clipboard ( I know how to do this but it is not so elegant :-) ). I tried to get the data automatically with the following code: (See snippet)
    I have also looked at the existing solutions in the forum for Loging in to a website but the difference here is that I am just interested in getting out the data from a Table (form or element? I am not so familiar with HTML nor JAVA)
    Any tips are appreciatted.

    Get Web Table Data example.png ‏53 KB

    The trick is to get the current html of the page and not the source - the source will not render the javascript of the page which is what loads/populates the table. It's the difference between inspecting an element in Chrome and viewing the source.
    You'll need to see if there's a method/property that returns the 'live' html document object model after the Javascript has populated the table rather than the source of the page.
    You may also have more success trying to replicate the same method the webpage uses to actually load the data..it probably makes a request to a page which returns the scores information in a more 'raw' format rather than having to parse out the html elements yourself.
    (Also as an aside - Java is not the same as Javascript - one is a compiled language and one is a scripting language).

  • How to make iChat receive google.talk chat from a web page?

    I have set up a google talk account and can login in to via iChat 5.0 on Snow Leopard to that Jabber account. I have placed a google talk applet on my web page for people to chat to me for customer service reasons. But the chat only appears if I have my iGoogle web page open and not in my iChat window, which is what I would prefer.
    The web page with the google chat link enabled is at www.federatefilms.com

    MPEG Streamclip and the MPEG-2 Playback Component should work to demultiplex and convert VOB files. The Help menu in MPEG Streamclip should have complete instructions. You could also look into DVDxDV or Cinematize.

  • How do I get video clips into Organizer from Elements?

    I have broken my raw video into pieces in elements but can't get it to import into organizer.
    I am using Elements 11 Trial.

    The video is actually a football highlight film for our son and came to us as a single mp4 file with about 60 plays of video on it.
    What I am trying to do is
    1) Cut it down into 60 individual videos (which I did and currently have in my project).
    2) Save the pieces off as individual video clips.
    3) Get the ability to rank/rate each video and select the 25 or so that will make up the final video.
    4) Polish/edit those that make the grade.
    5) Organize and assemble.
    Does this make sense?

I am using Elements 11 Trial.Place the "Work Area Bars" (located on the time line) so that only a "piece" is covered.  Then "Share" to a computer file. Pick a file type that suits your needs.  Be sure to check the box titled "Share WorkArea Bar Only".  Unfortunately, the clip piece will be re-encoded.  PrE11 will do that well, but not perfect because any encoding always seems to loose a little. You did not say what camera you are using.  The software that came with my Sony and Panasonic camcorders is much better for splitting clips into smaller clips.  Some sort of magic is in them where re-encoding does not take place.  The pieces have the same picture quality as the original.   So, when I do what you want, I break it into pieces with the camcorder software, the put the video together in PrE with all the creative tools it offers.  Bill

  • How do I add dates from a web page into iCal?

    Hello. I would love to find a way to input dates from a web page, into iCal as an event. Right now, if there is a conference or whatever that is on such and such a date, I have to keep the web page open that has the dates and time, and then open iCal, and create a new event on that date, etc. Is there a way to highlight said dates on a web page, run some automation, and voila, it is a new event in iCal?

    Don't double tap. Just try pressing on the text. That should highlight it.

  • How to download an animated .gif from a web page

    how do i download to my mac an animated gif that is on a web page....when i want a picture or text or something like that i just ...apple shift 4 and "take a picture of it" ...but i want the animation..i have never had to do that on this mac.....a windoze person from the site(chat site) said just right click but my wireless mac mouse doesnt do that....i would appreciate any help.....i do know how to down load from a site that has downloadable .gifs...you just click the download sign they have and no problem....but this is just a random animated .gif from a web page ....i hope my ques is clear....thank you

    Drag and drop it from the webpage onto your desktop. Note that it won't remain "animated" while you're looking at the file's icon, but it should work if you build it into a new website.
    And you can right-click with a Mac mouse - you just have to set it up to do so in System Preferences. (Set the right side of the mouse to be a "secondary click".)

  • How to Open an Oracle Apps Screen from a web page

    Hi,
    We have requirement for Opening an Oracle Application screen (say sales order form) directly from a web page.
    I could get the URL of the required screen, but the URL contains an ICX_TICKET number, which is generated dynamically by Oracle Apps. So I can't use a static URL for this.
    Do you know how I can use or generate an ICX_TICKET in runtime? My user will have an active Oracle Application screen opened along with web page. He want to navigate to Oracle Apps screen from Web page. Hopes this makes the requirement more clear.
    Thanks for your time,
    Aneesh

    Hi Helios,
    I have identified a function to generate ICX_ticket. By appending this ticket, I am able to open the Oracle Apps screen. Now, is there in implication on the security side, if I go ahead this way?
    Function
    fnd_gfm.one_time_use_store(icx_sec.GetSessionCookie(CZ_CF_API.ICX_SESSION_TICKET),300,'FORMS_APPLET')
    Anyways, I am raising an SR as u suggested.
    Thank you,

  • I did a COPY of some text from a web page, and then did a PASTE into notepad.exe (Windows). The text from each line was duplicated -- on the line! Instead of "Fred", it became "Fred Fred".

    I just recently installed Firefox for the first time. It seems nice and quick. The version is reported as: "10.0.1".
    I wanted to save some text from a web page, so navigated to that page, selected the text, and pressed the Control-C combination to COPY the selected text to the buffer. For example, the text I selected looked something like this:
    Harry
    Ron
    Hermione
    Hagrid
    Albus
    NOTE: Each line of text has a small icon to the left of the text.
    It is not reasonable to COPY and PASTE each line individually, as there can be hundreds of lines of data. I recall, however, that
    doing a COPY and PASTE on this data into Microsoft's Excel will produce cells which have the icons included in the cell, but unfortunately one cannot can't get rid of them! At least I've never found a way to remove them, but that's another issue. :)
    Once I'd done the COPY operation I switched to a Notepad window and did a PASTE operation. To my surprise, the text from each line was duplicated. It looked like this:
    Harry Harry
    Ron Ron
    Hermione Hermione
    Hagrid Hagrid
    Albus Albus
    Thinking that there might be something unusual about the web page I looked at the source, but it appeared "normal" -- that is, as expected.
    Note: I have done this operation several times before, and have never seen this occur before.
    Note: In the actual data some of the lines have quoted text in them. Curiously there is weird behavior on these lines. In some cases the entire line is shown only once. (These occur at the top of the line, and the quoted text is at the beginning of the name.)
    When quoted text appears "later" in the name, in some cases the quoted text is duplicated, and in other cases the quoted text is missing altogether! I have also noticed an error with the quoted text, and so will be reporting that to the web site which generates the HTML.
    Note that each line of "text" is "anchor text", so if I click on a name the browser navigates to a page for that name.
    I believe that the problem is that the COPY operating in Firefox is not simply copying the visible text, but also the ALT=
    Below is a sample of what the source HTML looks like:
    &lt;a class="lnk" target="_blank" href="http://details.aspx?id=Harry">
    &lt;img width="16" height="16" alt="Harry" class="tb_icon" src="http://.../Harry.gif"/>
    &lt;span>Harry&lt;/span>&lt;/a>
    <br/>
    (Because of the true length of the lines in the source HTML, I have stripped out the actual URL of the site.)
    To make sure I wasn't imaging this difference I repeated the process within Internet Explorer. In that browser I did not get duplicated data.

    Try:

  • How to set a cookie in the browser from an html page called via an Iview

    How to set a cookie in the browser from an html page called via an Iview
    Hello all,
    I have an issue which is causing problems. I have a snap survey (html form with submit and cookie setting) which is embedded in a url iview.
    Although the submit and the form work fine, the portal will not allow the cookie to be set it seems.
    Is there a way to allow cookies to be set from an embedded page in a url iview??
    You will make my day if you know!

    Kind regards

    Hi,
    Check this:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/portal/html/same_cookie_domain_with_pdkv2.html
    Cookie Basics
    Web browsers have built in rules for receiving and sending cookies. When a browser makes a request to a web server and the web server returns cookies with the response, the browser will only accept a cookie if the domain associated with the cookie matches that of the original request. Similarly, when a browser makes a subsequent request, it will only send those cookies whose domain matches that of the target web server.
    These rules are designed to ensure that information encoded in cookies is only "seen" by the web server(s) that the originator of the cookie intended. These rules also ensure that the cookie cannot be corrupted or imitated by another server. By default, the domain associated with a cookie exactly matches that of the server that created it. However, it is possible to modify the domain at the time the cookie is created. Relaxing the cookie domain increases the scope of the cookie's visibility making it available to a wider "audience" of web servers.
    For example, if a cookie is created by a.us.oracle.com, it's domain will usually be set to a.us.oracle.com. This means that the browser will only send the cookie to a.us.oracle.com. It will never send it to any other servers. However, if at the time of creation, the domain of the cookie is set to .us.oracle.com, the browser will send the cookie to any server whose domain falls within .us.oracle.com. such as portal.us.oracle.com, provider.us.oracle.com, app.us.oracle.com etc
