    First time making a website.Proficient in Photoshop, just purchased Dreamweaver CS4 (can't understand it).
    Looking for a website template that has a video welcome and introduction
    screen on the first page(home).
    Do such templates exist?
    Website is for my son's small business.
    Can anyone help please with suggested template?

    Perhaps its easier to use a text editor and add the html code for video part. For instance the following page contains the object tag to play an swf clip. You must change the link to the video to point to a valid one

    The object type tag specifies the video type for the browser.

    So you can extract the object tag and insert it into your html template and customize it a bit.

    Code:
    <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" dir="ltr" lang="en">
<head>
<title>test page</title>
<style type="text/css">

body {
  font-family: Arial, sans-serif;
  font-size: 11px;
  line-height: 1.5;
}

#wrapper {
  margin: 0 auto;
  width: 780px;
  position: relative;
}

#content {
  height: 800px;
}

</style>
</head>
<body>
  <div id="wrapper">
    <div id="content" style="text-align: center; padding: 20px 0px 0px 0px">

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
data="http://www.example.com?hl=en&autoplay=1" 
width="640" height="480">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.example.com?hl=en&autoplay=1" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"> 
<param name="quality" value="high" />
</object>

    </div>
  </div>
</body>
</html>
