One way to put Camtasia’s flash player on your WordPress blog is not to put it there.

Whut?

Instead, we will have a picture like this one below. It looks like a video player, doesn’t it? But actually it’s just a jpeg with a link to a video. Try pressing play.

The linkI used looks like <a href=”http://s174823996.onlinehome.us/test1/test1.html” target=”_blank”>
<p style=”text-align: center”><img src=”https://harrisonfarm.com/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/test2capture.jpg” alt=”test2capture.jpg” /></p>.

The key is to use the target=”_blank” to open a new page.

But wouldn’t it be great to have the new page be one of those cool little pop-up pages with nothing but a title bar?

How do they do that, anyway?

Below is the code from such a link. It doesn’t work because I don’t have the javascript file that supports it.
