Dreamweaver 21.1 version

[AmeeraNasser]

Hello,

I am a associate/junior Developer and I just updated the new version on dreamweaver. I am working on my website and updating a few of my pages. This is the challenge I am experiencing. Since the new update I can no longer use the old codes for uploading a video mp4 and put it up so I can refresh my website.

I need help!! Can someone please guide me or help me with the new code for a PC .

Thank you!!

What does your code look like?

I will try bing. I am still trying to figure out what the new coding is for uploading a .mov video.

Here's what it did look like back in 2020

<img src="you need to get yourself a dohg.mov"alt=""/></a>

and now since the update I cant seem to figure out the new coding. This is frustrating

[BenPleysier]

<img src="you need to get yourself a dohg.mov"alt=""/></a>

That has never and will never show the video, that is markup used to show an image.

I am going to watch a tutorial for advanced developers and see what I can do because this is frustrating

Code is code.  There is no 'new code for PC' so I'm not sure what you're asking.

When you upgraded to the new DW version, did you restore preferences to factory default?  If yes, you probably lost your site definition settings.  You will need to create a new site definition by going to Site > New Site.  Enter your local site folder and the server's log-in credentials.

Post back if you need more help.

What I am saying is the codes I used last year in 2020 aren't useful anymore and I know this because I just attempted to use the same coding for uploading my .mov video using <img alt src="youneedtogetyourselfadog.mov" > and it's still not working.

So, I have to respectfully disagree with you with regard to "code is code" because my old codes are coming up as error which I already fixed and updated as the DW software updates too.

What Nancy is saying is that code is code. This has nothing to do with Dreamweaver. You could code just using Notepad. Therefore there is no new code that is determined by Dreamweaver, new code is determined by the evolution in browsers.

When you say that you want to upload videos, do you use your website to do that or do you use FTP (File Transport Protocol). Maybe you use Webdav. We are not to know without you telling us.

As far as showing the video on the site, have a look at https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/video

I hope this helps

Ben,

I use dreamweaver then I go to my website and click refresh but it doesnt refresh. Also, I used your advice and tried bing and it is better than google. Thanks!
