Use the {HTML}{/HTML} tags and paste the code in between them.

Seriously, dude, this has been covered in at least two other threads.

EDIT: Hell, you started one of them.

Let me try this thing again (didn't work for me last time I tried):

[html]<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GP6WSOS0rUc"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GP6WSOS0rUc" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>[/html]

Did you know that the first person to portray Ronald McDonald was none other than America's favorite weatherman, Willard Scott?

I was just trying to embed one. Tried it several different ways. No luck.

This feature will return. Did you try the "Flash" button? I haven't tried it, yet, but it might work.

Looks like it works, but you have to strip out all the code and just put the URL located within the code. For example, the above clip is:

Code: Select all

[flash=425,355]http://www.youtube.com/v/zOVGVMiwPSA&rel=1[/flash]

Alright already...how do you embed videos when you are not given the option of an HTML button to check? I've tried using Flash as Doc mentions above...nothing as worked for me. I know you can do it because I see people imbedding videos...why can't I?

Alright already...how do you embed videos when you are not given the option of an HTML button to check? I've tried using Flash as Doc mentions above...nothing as worked for me. I know you can do it because I see people imbedding videos...why can't I?

first you cut and paste the imbed link...should look something like this (i've bolded out the pertinent info: the width, the height, and the link):

<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/9shrf3s5Wgo&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/9shrf3s5Wgo&rel=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>

then you hit the [flash] quick key button above...this will pop up :

[flash=][/flash]

after the "=" sign, you insert 425,355 (representing width and height) and between the brackets, you insert the link like so (i've added an unnecessary space in the link just to illustrate) - tip is that the link should always end in "=1":

[flash=425,355:2r5hmnwj]http://www.yout ube.com/v/9shrf3s5Wgo&rel=1[/flash:2r5hmnwj]

without the space in the link, it'll look like this...voila:

[flash=425,355:2r5hmnwj]http://www.youtube.com/v/9shrf3s5Wgo&rel=1[/flash:2r5hmnwj]

Uh, yeah...that sounds really clear. I'll try again later.

[flash=425,355:18tc9ocr]http://www.youtube.com/v/9shrf3s5Wgo&rel=1[/flash:18tc9ocr]

Okay, I'll try...

<div style="width:480px; text-align: center;"><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" src="" style="float:right;border-width: 0;" ></a></div>

[flash=425,355:18tc9ocr]http://w50.photobucket.com/pbwidget.swf ... a9705e.pbw" height="360" width="480"><a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/album/slides ... r_logo.gif" style="float:left;border-width: 0;" ></a><a href="http://s50.photobucket.com/albums/f333/ ... a9705e.pbw" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/album/slides ... ewshow.gif" style="float:right;border-width: 0;" ></a><a href="http://photobucket.com/redirect/album?action=slideshow" target="_blank"><img src="http://pic.photobucket.com/album/slides ... rown.gif=1[/flash:18tc9ocr]

Yeah, it looks like I'm close and it might be easier with You Tube rather than my photobucket slideshow. I tried looking at the copy that was above my blank screen and going back to deleting it but I can't find it in the link? This sucks.

Mom7- Here is TT's pep talk video. Let me see if I can show this in a simple way.

YouTube Video (I don't know about Photobucket)-- right side of screen- embed video info--copy this. It looks like this, shown below. (Like rad's video, which, btw, is a weird video! What else should I expect from Mr. raddy my boy? LOL!)

<object width="425" height="373"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&re ... ram><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="373"></embed></objec

Delete all of the above except for this part...
http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1&border=1

Highlight this ^^^ above and hit the flash button. It will look like this...
[flash=] http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1&border=1 [/flash]

Then type in the 425, 355 like rad said. This is the height and width info needed. It should look like this..
[flash= 425,355]http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1&border=1[/flash] EXCEPT put the 425,355 with no space after the [flash=

I had to put the space there so that the video wouldn't show. When I put the 425,355 right after the [flash=425,355]http://www. etc., I get the video.
[flash=425,355:joyj0lgh]http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1&border=1[/flash:joyj0lgh]

Also, if I just typed the [flash=], it didn't work. I had to highlight this part.... http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1 and then hit the flash button, insert the 425,355 in the right spot, and it worked.

Just to confuse you more. I just noticed that the one above has =1&border=1[/flash] at the end. That puts a border around the video. Here it is with just &rel=1[/flash] at the end. No border.

[flash=425,355:joyj0lgh]http://www.youtube.com/v/skPdMP2LGZw&rel=1[/flash:joyj0lgh]

This looks long, but it is really only a few steps. I hope this helps.

G8rMom7 · Post by **G8rMom7** » Mon Jan 28, 2008 9:05 pm

I think the confusing part for my is my photobucket slideshow has a number of "http//" type addresses...one for each picture I think. That is why I was having difficulty. I may try again using your tricks, since I got close before.

It sure would be better if Doc would just get the html button back! [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_sad.gif[/img]

G8rMom7 · Post by **G8rMom7** » Mon Jan 28, 2008 9:11 pm

Another failed attempt, just using the direct link...but easier than trying to figure out the right link in the embedded code link.

G8rMom7 · Post by **G8rMom7** » Mon Jan 28, 2008 9:23 pm

I give up...I'm sure I could figure out the You Tube videos but my slideshows are just not working. I wonder if my Rock You videos would be easier. I think about doing that next.

Well, it worked with my Rock You video...argh. This is obviously a year old. I wonder if it's that Photobucket uses Shockwave? Does that make a difference? It looks like the Rock You slideshows use swf files.
