Posting YouTube videos

[Vitandus]

Go to the video you want. On the right hand side is a block with code to link or embed.



You can either copy the URL link and add the embed code suffix to the end, or just copy the embed section and modify that. We're going to do that here. When you copy the embed code, you get a block of text like the following:

<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/swsqYO81dP8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/swsqYO81dP8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>

Now, before you paste this in, first click the Flash button at the top of the post. It's the one on the far left underneath the Bold icon. When you do, you get this in your post:

Code Select Expand

[flash=200,200][/flash]

Now paste the stuff you copied in between so you have something like this now:

Code Select Expand

[flash=200,200]<object width="560" height="340"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/swsqYO81dP8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/swsqYO81dP8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="560" height="340"></embed></object>[/flash]

Now you have to change the size and have just the embed URL:

Code Select Expand

[flash=560,340]http://www.youtube.com/v/swsqYO81dP8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0[/flash]

http://www.youtube.com/v/swsqYO81dP8&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0

Now that we've done all that.... You can just note the image size, and replace the movie reference code with your movie in the embed URL:
