Is there any way to get a video file from vimeo that I have embedded in my web site to play automatically when the web page comes up? Thanks!

Thanks for some inspiration to write about. I just did a little quick tutorial, based on your question, on how to can get Vimeo videos to play automatically when the page is loaded. All you really need to do is add "autostart=1" in the right places. Check out Quick Tip: Autoplay Vimeo Videos On Page Load | Vidlivery (http://vidlivery.com/2009/jan/16/basics/quick-tip-autoplay-vimeo-videos-page-load) for all the details

Wes,

Glad I could inspire you. Thanks for the quick tip. Works great. On the instructions you wrote on the link you typed autostart=1 but in the embed code it is autoplay=1 just in case anyone else wants to use this great tip. Thanks again!

Oops, your right. Thanks for notifying me about that.
