Hi Lisa,

I went to your movie page @ URL:
https://www.angelfire.com/fl5/lisalk00/LK_movie.html
and clicked on the three videos offered. The download
prompt boxes all came up; however, having only a dial-up
connection, I didn't go any further.

What is it, actually, that doesn't work?

Lisa if you didn't change anything in your code then it's likely those movies expired from your browser cache so will need to download to your computer again before playing.

I looked at your page yesterday. The 3 movies I saw on that page are much too large for a web page especially for visitors on a slow connection like modem. I see video file sizes of 60 MB, 40 MB, and 81MB. Figure 3-5 minutes to download each MB on modem and you'll see that a 60 MB file will take at least 3-4 hours to download.

Your best bet would be to edit or optimize those videos to get their file sizes way, way down if you want to post them on a web page. At their current sizes they will all be slow to load even on a fast connection.

Also, though this won't speed up download, your movie page html has several major errors. Each html file should have just one set of html and body tags. I see at least 2 head tags and 3 body tags and think I saw extra meta tags sets as well. That may cause display problems in some browsers.
