Can YouTube Videos Be Embedded in Posts?

Postby Paul Cherubini » Sat Jul 16, 2011 12:29 am

Videos can be embedded in Journey North Sighting Reports

But I don't know if it can be done on the Monarch Watch forum.

Here is how it is done on Journey North:

1) Go to your video:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zsLUhH3z_c8

Select "Share"
When "Link to this video" appears, an "Embed" button shows up.
Hit "Embed" button and the html code as shown below appears in a box.

<object width="560" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/zsLUhH3z_c8?version=3&amp;hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/zsLUhH3z_c8?version=3&amp;hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="349" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true"></embed></object>

Copy and paste the html code and insert in your report on JN.
