The same way I'd do it without Frontpage. It's clear from your questions (and responses) that you need to spend some time with a good web development book rather than asking questions here.

But I mean how to create the video internally from which drop down menu I do it and from where to get the navigation forward, backward and play buttons. This is readily available in a program like a swish max but here I can't find it?

Available in Swish max by writing small instruction codes in actionscript like play(), stop().

You're not really getting the hints are you? Go away and do some research, you need more basic understanding of web development and the tools you are trying to use before coming here.

ok thanks it seems that I understood the goals of this forum wrongly. I was thinking that this forum is for help but it seems it is not like that! So do you want to say to me don't send here again? If you are trying to insult me I'll complain you to the head of this site!

Search the Google for SilverLight. Get the Expression Studio trial. Once you have built a silverlight video project you can include it in your FrontPage project.

These forums are for asking questions and receiving help. However, you have the responsibility to do some research before coming here. We are not here to do your work or give you answers which can be readily obtained by basic learning of tools and technology you are trying to work with.

You don't need Silverlight to embed a video in a website.

ok that is what I do. I'm spending now over 4 hours just searching for my answer. I worked with frontpage and I know that its main purpose is publish a website. So it does hyperlinks, insert external videos and pictures, make any effects or arrangements to text. But this is really strange and I can't find an answer making research on Google provide me the basics to do what I mentioned before but not my question.

I know how to put an external video into frontpage I can use insert menu and insert any type of video or insert flash video of type .swf. but my question is how to create video internally and as I mentioned above I made a lot of research with different keywords and I don't get ananswer? If you could help me I'd be so thankful.

The reason why you've had an abrasive answer is because Frontpage cannot be used to make videos. Which you really should have picked up from 4 hours worth of looking, hence the irritation from other posters. It'll make the webpage you can view it from, it won't make the video.

I was asked this question in a job interview and I wasn't able to answer it so there must be a way to create a video from within Frontpage as they insisted in the interview to do it from within Frontpage. Thanks for your answer anyway.

I've worked with frontpage for a couple of years and I have never heard of this, nor seen it within the help, it simply doesn't do it, Frontpage is an html editor, not a video creator or similar, it just makes html. Messily but that's all it does. Whoever asked you this was a tool or they phrased the question badly. The closest you can get is to include an ActiveX video componant from the hosted website files rather than one from an external. I don't even think Sharepoint Designer would (which is what I believe Frontpage became, someone can correct me on this), in fact I'm pretty sure it wouldn't. To sum up: It's not possible and continued insistence that it can is fruitless.

ok thanks it was really a strange question I was asked. I don't know from where they got it!
