How does one do it?

from WinCustomize Forums

Just curious...

I tried to embed a video in a post a few minutes ago and couldn't figure it out. Anyone know how?

On YouTube there is an embed field.

It looks like this (but all on one line):

Code: html
  2. <object width="425" height="344">
  3. <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" />
  4. <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" />
  5. <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed>
  6. </object>
  7. &lt;object width="425" height="344"&gt;
  8. &lt;param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;
  9. &lt;param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;
  10. &lt;param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;
  11. &lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;
  12. &lt;/object&gt;

YOu will want to go to HTML mode by clicking on teh icon on the editor toolbar.

Then paste it all in.

Lastly, remove everything but the embed portion

Code: html
  1. &lt;embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"&gt;

Click teh update button.  You won't see anything.

Post.
