Mmm.
At last I can sleep soundly at night knowing the honour of my country is being defended by such a capable, mentally agile individual.
Your guile and bravery truly knows no beginning.
I salute you.

Thanks.

Fix that webpage, it immediately plays two sound clips and it's a nightmare to find where they are. |
With regard to that forum page, I have come across people experiencing the unintended auto-play problem now and then but not often enough for me to do a full scale investigation.
I suspect it is your browser option set incorrectly which stops the embed code being interpreted properly. The embedded code is set to NOT autoplay, but your browser is not reading it correctly and is auto-playing it when it should not.
I suggest you consider turning the sound down as a quick fix and if you want to investigate and discover what setting on your browser it wrongly set and let me know, I will pass it on to others who experience the same problem. That page DOESN'T auto-play for me, because I have my browser set up correctly.
| SoND wrote: | Your main site is the same, I really don't appreciate some loud cunt shouting at me the second I try to go on to it. |
Now as for the main webpages - the website is designed with an OPTION to auto-play or to NOT auto-play. The option may not work correctly if your browser is set up incorrectly but for most people it is easily set one way or another.
This link begins the site with the auto-play function off.
https://scot.tk/quiet.htm
Otherwise if you start it normally there is an "off button" in the top menu bar for the autoplay which looks like this.
https://scot.tk/autoplayisTRUE.jpg
If you click on that image on the site it should swap it for another image like so -
https://scot.tk/autoplayisFALSE.jpg
indicating that auto-play is off.
Even with auto-play off, many of the videos or music items can be manually played using the embedded player and when you do it that way, the off switch is in the same place so you don't feel out of control.

| SoND wrote: | What exactly are you doing/trying to achieve? |
Politics. Political leadership - with priority given to the Scots but my wisdom is available to all who wish to benefit from it.
Some of my main political themes I have summed up in my Standard Bearer outfit. This is for those for whom first impressions is all they will ever understand.
https://scot.tk/wristprotectgloves2.jpg
| Quote: | Peter's Standard Bearer Outfit
As to why there should be so much curiosity about this I am not quite sure? Yet I have received so many comments and questions about what I am wearing in many of the photographs in my Scottish National Standard Bearer website that I think it will save me time in the long run if I produce a web-page about this which I can link to whenever the issue arises.
The Standard Bearer outfit which I wear on the rare occasions when I am doing some high profile campaigning is intended to be functional and the function is to complement my duties as a Scottish National Standard Bearer as regards the political and military functions which I have defined for the modern era in this website.
I have adapted a military-style jacket obtained from an army surplus shop. Clearly, it is not a "uniform" because as a unique custom-made outfit, it is not uniformly the same as clothing worn by anyone else.
Badges
The shoulder and chest Lion Rampant ("Scottish National Standard") badges were bought off the shelf. The Scotland flag lapel badges were made by a local company and the white border around the traditional St. Andrew's cross ("Saltire") is simply a manufacturing artefact rather than by design. The "DOW" name badge was home-made from items available from a hardware shop.
Republican red arm-band
The red arm band is a traditional method whereby socialists can identify themselves in situations where a threat to order may arise - when stewarding a demonstration or large public meeting or less frequently these days, in street-fighting against fascists.
For example, when a member of the Labour Party in Glasgow in the late 1980s, I wore a red arm-band while serving as a steward at a big public meeting addressed by Tony Benn.
Often the arm-band is simply a strip of red cloth tied around normal clothing. This is the inspiration for the slightly neater tailored version on my jacket.
In passing, I would of course reject any comparison with the use by Nazis of a red-arm-band-with-Nazi-swastika worn as part of some Nazi uniforms.
Real socialists had copyright on red arm bands long before the Nazis were thought of. The Nazis abused words as well as people, and they had no legitimate claim to the words "socialist", "nationalist" or the colour red.
I have thoughtfully written the word "REPUBLICAN" on the arm band, so that I could not be mistaken for one of the Queen's officers, and even if Labour MPs and MSPs swear allegiance to the UK monarch, I certainly do not, and so that I should not be mistaken for maybe a Salvation Army variation or para-medic or something.
Co-incidentally or not, the American republican party's colour is red and I would say I tend to be a more enthusiastic supporter of American republicans like Condoleezza Rice than do other Scottish, British and European socialists, so once again the word "REPUBLICAN" serves me well.
My outfit represents I believe my political roots in socialism and republicanism from where I began my journey to Scottish nationalism - and therefore it is not splendidly, overtly Scottish, with a kilt and so on, as you might see worn by the Scottish military.
I am not saying there is anything wrong with current Scottish military uniforms or anything, it is simply that I wish to be seen to reject the whole notion that if Prince Charles is in a kilt or some other royal dresses the same as a traditional Scottish soldier, that somehow makes that royal "one of us Scots" or loyal to Scotland when in fact he and his family are the true enemies of the Scots, however they dress.
Red trousers
Republican socialist red trousers - wearing this colour of trousers saves me from having to carry the people's Red Flag, first dyed red by the blood of socialist martyrs, as well as the Lion Rampant, Scottish National Standard. After all, I only have one pair of hands.
Point and click photograph
I am wearing my standard bearer outfit in the following photograph which tries to illustrate the themes of a Scottish National Standard Bearer and this website. There is further information about the items in the photograph in a linked-to point and click photograph web-page which includes a simple "find the links" game. The point-and-click-links are to web-pages of interest I hope. |
https://scot.tk/mwithwallsmall30q610.jpg
| Quote: | The idea of wearing the outfit, carrying the flag and so on is indeed to attract attention but once I have a person's attention, I'd like the person to listen or to read as much as they can about what it is I am actually saying about the important political issues. I am trying to bring a political message to everyone, while appreciating that individuals vary greatly in their attention to detail. |
I am a life-long anti-Nazi, active with campaigns to stop the far, right neo-Nazi parties like the National Front and the British National Party.
For example, I helped out with the campaign to stop the National Front marching through Aberdeen in 2004.
VA Day. Victory in Aberdeen day.

After watching your video and looking about a bit more it's obvious you don't have any point to make.
Everything is about YOU. The narcissism is excruciating, you see yourself as a William Wallace character and if you shout loud enough about something then maybe someday you will get a statue of your own. The great Peter Dow who rallied up the brave scots to drive the Queen of England back below the border where she belongs.
Your site is absolutely plastered with your face with minimal content about what you're looking to do.
No one gives a shit about who you are or what you look like. Dressing up like that, as you are well aware, screams for attention but you're not trying to draw attention to the point you're trying to make, you're doing it for yourself. For instance your placard has a giant PETER DOW on it, bigger than anything else on it!
Jesus Christ! GET OVER YOURSELF! You are a nobody, nothing, just like everybody else.
If you have something serious to protest about, so be it. Do it as best you can and if it's important, someone will listen. Stop trying to build yourself up a name because you're a lot less important than you think you are.
Too bad this will go right over your head because you love yourself.  ____________________ Go back to bed - You have no rights - "Streetfighters ~ Mainstream motorcycling's crackwhore sister." |

There is nothing wrong with my browser settings.
Go to autoplay.htm and change the big TRUE value to FALSE.
| Code: |
<!--
//
if ( top.$auto === undefined ) top.$auto = "TRUE";
document.write("<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"REFRESH\" CONTENT=\"0;URL=autoplay"+top.$auto+".htm\">");

Yes. As of yet I haven't seen Christians making hundreds of facebook pages in an attempt to increase the traffic to their sites.
| Peter Dow wrote: | My websites are a means to explain my politics in this day and age. It is more efficient than standing on the street corner as I used to do. |
So you choose subjects that you know nothing about and then make webpages to try and direct traffic to your site? Surely you'd be better picking subjects that you know about?
| Peter Dow wrote: | It would be more efficient still if the TV broadcasters would put me on TV but they are not keen to do so as yet - apart from that 10 minute video on BBC 2 Scotland that one time. |
Any political activist that's any good is able to get coverage in the press, the best you seem to be able to do is making large amounts of facebook groups and spamming forums. Pretty poor effort really.

I am the group owner of Rice for President Yahoo Group
I am the group owner of For Condi YouTube Group Many Condi videos I have produced and set to music.
Also I have a few Condi pages on my Scottish and international politics website and my political discussion forum.
I have spent a lot of time already presenting arguments in support of Condoleezza Rice.
Any objective assessment of me would see that I love Condi and not myself. ____________________ Scottish republican socialist, author and protester (Video profile)

I think there may be because in this page,
https://scot.tk/forum/viewtopic.php?p=181#181
the embedded audios are
| Code: | | <EMBED SRC="media/1june06bbcaudio.wma" AUTOSTART="false" HIDDEN="false" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=45></EMBED> |
and
| Code: | | <EMBED SRC="media/peter16Junemorningextra2.wma" AUTOSTART="false" HIDDEN="false" WIDTH=300 HEIGHT=45></EMBED> |
and you can see that the autostart is always off.

autoplay.htm is not used for the forum page you first complained about.
autoplay.htm and the code you quote is used for the website pages which are viewed within a window inside the home page - the page with the sky-blue border and menus top and left.
For the website pages, (NOT the forum page) the default IS to autoplay but I have explained already how to use the user option to switch the autoplay off.
It DOES work and switch off autoplay in webpages for those whose browser settings are set right, which yours don't seem to be because your browser is playing the forum page which has autostart=false.
| Quote: | Now as for the main webpages - the website is designed with an OPTION to auto-play or to NOT auto-play. The option may not work correctly if your browser is set up incorrectly but for most people it is easily set one way or another.

So long as the webpages are viewed from the home page within the window the auto-play can be switched off, if your browser setting are right.
However, when webpages are viewed on their own, not within the window of the home page then auto-play is always on. ____________________ Scottish republican socialist, author and protester (Video profile)

It's still really annoying. You don't need to embed the file whenever there's a youtube link there to play it with. It's your fault.
The frame you have put into your signature makes the page scroll extremely badly, get rid of it or tidy it up.
Autoplay anywhere is terrible. Big no no, especially when it's cryptic and you want to turn it off. (Scot.tk I'm talking about here)
Your design is crap. I appreciate you have probably spilled a lot of your time into this site but it's over done. Minimal is key.
Get a bit of order going, none of the pages look the same except for the fact your face is in the background. I don't want to see your face, I want to know what the site is about.
You have <30 seconds from a visitor opening your site to know exactly what they are looking at and a good reason to stay and look about. Audio blasting in the background and no obvious way to stop it is a sure fire way to scare them off.
This is a site by a man called John Harris. Notice how tidy everything is, easy to navigate and he doesn't make an over the top effort to highlight his name or identity. It's by no means the best but it's a long shot better than yours.
