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
  1. <object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&hl=en&fs=1" /><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&hl=en&fs=1" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object><object width="425" height="344">
  2. <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&hl=en&fs=1"></param>
  3. <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
  4. <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
  5. <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/QH4lyJWa_84&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed>
  6. </object>

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

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

Post.

Looks like this:
