How do you get a Utube video to show up in a post? I see where I can “copy embed html”, but the video itself does no appear in the post.
For example:
<param](http://www.youtube.com/v/l37RhdFGVsM&color1=0xb1b1b1&color2=0xd0d0d0&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&fs=1"></cke:param><cke:param) name=“allowFullScreen” value=“true”>
[Or this, using the add link](http://)
But how do I get the video itself to appear in the post?
[ View : normal youtube url : 640 : 480 ]
Without the spaces.
Test ----
View:<param name=“allowFullScreen” value=“true”>:640:480]
Nielsio, thanks for the reply. But my ignorance is profound. I copied the link from google, didn’t work. Then I copied the embed html on the video itself. No luck. Where do I get the URL for a utube video? See the mess I came up with, above.
Again, forgive my ignorance. Thanks for the help.
I said ‘normal youtube url’, not ‘embed code’.
Example:
[ View : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fNTzp9grp2Q : 640 : 480 ]

.
can this thread be sticky, please?
[ View : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mDp65Juibes : 640 : 480 ]
Eliminate the spaces in it. I figured it out thanks to the tipster, thanx

You don’t need to type the frame size, just put [ view: youtube-url ] into brackets.
So if I wanted to embed this video exactly what would it look like? Do I just paste it into the post? Do I have to be in the “source” area?

The post from the Welcome Thread I linked you to (which is probably how you found this thread):
I don’t know any other way to say “put the url for the video in that syntax without the spaces.”
Maybe,
[view:YOUR YOUTUBE LINK HERE:640:385 ]
?
I’m completely out of ideas.
I got it bro
From what I could see you literally said the same thing that was said in this thread multiple times. I’m not sure how that would help, unless you actually can do the same thing over and over again and eventually get a different result.
Well, I made it a non-issue by posting his video, so at very least he wont ask for help in posting that video again. And if he does, we can berate him. I also did repeat it, and sometimes repetition works. I also read somewhere that when people learn (or try to learn) the same thing in different settings, they improve sometimes. It was peer-reviewed. So now everyone can go over to Dan’s thread and watch his video, and I will avoid the temptation of spoiling the surprise end for you all.
