Deluxe or Premium WebSite Tonight® accounts running on a Windows® operating system come with a built-in video recording feature. Once you record and upload a video, you can add it to your website's pages.

NOTE: Video recording is not compatible with Google® Chrome or Safari® browsers, FireFox™ 3.6 or Mac OS®.

To Record a Video and Add it to Your Website

  1. Log in to your WebSite Tonight account.
  2. On the Design menu page, click Page Designer.
  3. Click where you want to add your video.
  4. Go to the Insert tab, and from the Media menu select Video.
  5. From the Choose source menu, select Record a Video.

    NOTE: To use the video recording feature, you need to install an Active X plug-in: 'Starfield Technologies®' from 'On2 Technologies, Inc.'. If you are using Internet Explorer, you return to the WebSite Tonight home screen after installing the plug-in, and repeat steps 1 - 5.
