Dave, use the following tags minus the quotation marks.

["flash=425,344]http://*********** your video URL goes here*********[/flash"]

Didn't work, Brett. The actual URL is:

 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mgIKLJxTn9Q

and the info to embed the video is:

<object width="425" height="349"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/mgIKLJxTn9Q&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6&border=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/mgIKLJxTn9Q&hl=en&fs=1&rel=0&color1=0x006699&color2=0x54abd6&border=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="349"></embed></object>


Feel free to give it a try if you like -

Thanks as always, my friend-
Dave

That's an inspiring machine Dave.
BTW make sure you get the actual video url from the code you posted earlier, and not the page url. Also make sure uo change the video size in the above code exampe to 640 x 480

Hey there, thanks so much for adding that info, very helpful  :)

I do also have a question for you though, why does the date on your replies say June 5 ?

Thanks again-
Dave

Good question, I have no idea. Maybe I'm behind the times.  If I am Pythagoas, the date should actually be 580BC
