    Can I add a Quicktime Movie to my site?

    Unfortunately, a Quicktime Movie file does not function the way an embedded video would because the Quicktime Movie doesn't have a player embedded into the file. However, there are two workarounds.

    1. You can upload your Quicktime Movie to YouTube.com and then upload the embedded code to your site. Or...

    2. You can create a feature box in the right hand column that has a text link or graphic linking to the Quicktime Movie. That way, when someone clicks on the text link or graphic, it launches the video player from their computer in a separate window.
