How to Embed a Youtube Video

This has probably been asked before, but how do you embed a video in your post?  I tried clicking Embed on the youtube site and copying and pasting the url.  That didn’t work…

You have to select old embed code on YouTube.

1)click the share button under the youtube screen. you tube link will pop up.



2)click on the Embed button under the link.



3)right click and copy Embed code



4)paste on SA message board :wink:

object width=“480” height=“360”><param name=“movie” value=“http://www.youtube.com/v/xAXWeuXAsno?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0”></param><param name=“allowFullScreen” value=“true”></param><param name=“allowscriptaccess” value=“always”></param><embed src=“http://www.youtube.com/v/xAXWeuXAsno?version=3&amp;hl=en_US&amp;rel=0” type=“application/x-shockwave-flash” width=“480” height=“360” allowscriptaccess=“always” allowfullscreen=“true”></embed></object





I tried copying and pasting both the old embed code and the default one andneither one seem to work. This one is the old code.



Only the code shows up and not the actual video. Not sure why this isn’t working…

WHen you go to reply, at bottom of screen it says DESIGN / HTML. Flick to HTML & paste the old embed code in there. Works in Internet Explorer.

I can never do it in Safari - doesnt seem to have the option. Firefox is ok as far as I know.
