Been PMing with the Mayor, I can't see any youtube videos on the forum with this PC, but the other PC is fine. What the hell?

I hate computers, I really do.

OK,

So I removed the code in brackets before and after and it still doesn't imbed. Or does it take a while to load.


This is what I had posted:

Edit:

OK, I must be a real Richard Cranium. Nope, I am one !!! :bang: I was copying the url from the address bar in my browser instead of copying the url as listed on the right side of the player on the you tube website.

So as Gilda Radnor used to say "Never Mind !!!!!"

If and when we ever do get together, someone can come up behind me and slap me on the back of my head or just :hammer:


Success has been had so now it is time for :beer: Of course that may have what caused this whole dilemna from the beginning. :D

And again make sure its on the same line like this:

Code: Select all
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAWM7E_WMfo[/youtube]


This will not work:

Code: Select all
[youtube]
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAWM7E_WMfo[/youtube]


Addtionanally if there are any parameters appended to the URL you have to remove them, for example if you click a related video in the left pane of youtubes site the URL will look like this and will not work:

Code: Select all
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAWM7E_WMfo&feature=related[/youtube]


Anything after the ampersand has to be deleted, this will work:

Code: Select all
[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MAWM7E_WMfo[/youtube]

Your honor,

That is what I was doing wrong. I had included the info after the ampersand.

I'm not polish, but sometimes it takes a while to get it through this thick skull of mine !!!!!!
