How do I embed a YouTube video!?
« on: May 02, 2007, 09:57:33 pm »
I know it can be done (JonLeung just did it with a Mega Man video) but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do it, or at least I don't feel like wasting hours figuring out something that I know is easy but which escapes me at the moment. Any help would be appreciated.

Well, as admin, I have full HTML capabilities...



I don't know the guts of the forums enough (that's bustin's job) to see if there's an option to allow non-admins to use all HTML code, or at least enough of it to a minimum user level.  I guess the concern is that someone could abuse that somehow.



In short...uh...don't bank on it happening anytime soon...  :/



What did you want to embed?  I'm here often enough, you could just post the code as it is and I could come around and edit it.  I believe that posts that I edit can have HTML, even if the post isn't mine to begin with.

Whew, I thought I had gone retarded or something. I'll post the YouTube <embed> data tonight. Thanks.

I've added the HTML code in the other thread. Now go and work that magic JonLeung >:)
