Can anyone tell me how i can insert a video into my page that displays a
picture,with the option of saving the video when right clicked, but not
linking to another page? When i embed the video file(about 40MB) it keeps
timing out when i try to upload it to my server, so i wondered if there was a
different way?
 
Normally when you right-click a hyperlink in IE, a menu pops up with the Save
Target As option available for you to save the target to your hard disk.

If you don't want to navigate your visitors away from your page, try opening
the target in a separate window. (i.e. set target to '_blank'). The new
window will close once the download commences.

For the time-out issue, try reducing the size of the video file (by zipping
it).
 
If your web host allows you to create subwebs/subsite and use FTP, create one subweb and then use a
FTP application to upload the file to the subweb.
