Hello!
First of all, i'm just a 14-year-old boy who dont speak english very well.

And this is my question:
I want to add a video on my website without playbutton and that stuf.. I only want it to play automattically.
I think it have to be at this way:
<? src="Godfathercodes_logo.avi">
when it's a image you set "IMG" at the ?
but what you place there when it's a video?

Hope to hear from you soon!

No. You need to either use <embed> and <object> tags to embed old QuickTime or Windows Media player applets, which then open their particular files on the server - or, the modern way, is to use Flash.

For Flash you use a SWF (Flash) embed which opens a video file encoded in a format which Flash can open. You should use MP4 (H264) these days. There are numerous free options you can use, e.g. FlowPlayer. Look on Google, it sounds like you have a lot of basics to cover first.
