Salaam,

Would it be possible to allow the embedding of video clips within one's posts, just like Piccolomondo's post here, either by HTML or a new VB tag code for example? It'll make things easier and you wouldn't have to leave A.com every time you watched a video.

Salaam,
this is what youtube says:

How do I embed playlists on my website or blog?



To embed a playlist, follow the steps below:
Go to the "Playlists" section of your account (http://www.youtube.com/my_playlists).
Select the playlist you'd like to embed.
Copy the embed code from the upper right corner.
Paste the code into your website or blog.
For more information on embedding, you may want to check out our Sharing YouTube Videos page (http://youtube.com/sharing).

i guess you have to be a member first...

Thanks Cheba

That's true for playlists but no, you don't need to be a member to share a video. The code is provided on the video page itself. All you do is copy and paste it where you want it to appear. On here though, the facility needs to be activated somehow through html or special vb code tags such as or [media]...[/media] for example. Is that possible? It would be of great help if we could!

it must be possible. Hmm let me think, because it is not as difficult as it seems.

maybe it is but am not defeated yet

lol Cheba, good try. I had a go myself but in vain

Nice video by the way

I think it's an Admin affair. But where's Admin?
