Harrenys Targaryen

Can YouTube-type videos be embedded into posts?

Just wondering since I tried to do it several times and failed.

For example:

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uAbtEQxFow4"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uAbtEQxFow4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

I haven't tried it yet, so I really don't know. Can those who have, help Harrenys?

Doubt it. Only certain HTML tags work on a forum. Embedded video and audio clips tend not to work as they interfere with the forum layout and can cause other problems.

So it goes. Thank you both for clarifying.

Yes. just use the following HTML code:



Code:
<embed src="media/citadel.mid" autostart="false" loop="false" height="45" width="170">
<noembed>Sorry, your browser doesn't support the embedding of multimedia.</noembed>
</embed>


I will enable these tags soon.

They will work if you enabled the
Code:
<embed>
tag. The only way they will mess with the layout is i you make the width so wide that it overhangs.
