has anyone heard or seen a website called hulu.com? they play full episodes of tv shows and so on, well on their homepage they have a big changeable screen of a screenshots with a description for you to click that moves every 3 seconds, if you go there you'll know what im talking about, its always on the homepage. a lot of sites have it like myspace also but hulu's is really big. how can i get the one hulu has? thanks.

I know what you're talking about. Like that banner thing, right? Well to do that, you'd have to be familiar with flash. You can make a Flash animation like that with Actionscript and all and then use a code to put the animation onto your webpage.

You need to download the s3slider.js and you need jQuery and place them in your header. make sure that you place the jquery file before the s3slider file.
If this didn't help you can watch this screencase or you can read the overview |

Flash is made up of still pictures and components. Hulu displays HD TV shows, I know that. Website like Hulu requires a high transfer rate or broad bandwidth. You will never make a website like Hulu for it will cost you a lot of money and months of programming. However, they all use Flash, or rather FLV. I found this tutorial maybe useful to you - http://en.kioskea.net/forum/affich-37340-s...sharing-website |

You can create a site with Dreamwaver and/ Notepad, or maybe I am misunderstanding you. I don't really get what you mean "free webpage creation site". |

O Ok you mean like Freewebs.com. Well I am sorry to say that I doesn't work on any site that doesn't allow Javascript. I haven't used any of those sites in a while so I can give and correct answer.
Just post the site URL that you want to use and I can check it out and see if it works. |

It most likely will work. Most hosting allows Javacript, only a few doesn't. |
