The Never Ending Pool

Hey,

i just discovered this great feature on our messageboard.
We can actually embed youtube or google video in a post.

don't believe me?
look below:



So how do you do this?

the syntax goes like this:
You open an accolade: {
You add the provider: for example youtube
then you close the accolade: }

you now embed the youtube id. you can find this id looking at the url: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WHxJF1y2Auk
the id here is the part after "v=". so it is WHxJF1y2Auk

then you close the tag by putting an accolade AND A BACKSLASH: {\
now you add youtube
and you close the accolade: }

so, the full example becomes

Code:

or just cut and paste from youtube the link titled 'embed'.

well cleverclogs jackyboy that doesn't appear to have worked.

Good to know we can do that

After several trys and w/ Thomas help I've got it. He might live to regret it tho !

Thanks, Thomas: 'The Dylan fans are restless, they need some place to go.'

Example: I entered the text below to finally embed a video!:

{ youtube } HhIsYOK_Rmo { /youtube }

(Note: you MUST take out the spaces in the above example in order for the video to display. I only included the spaces above to show the necessary text in its entirety.)

The result:



The above video is from this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhIsYOK_Rmo

Thomas probably meant, AND A FORWARD SLASH.

no he didn't
, a backslash starts up and goes down,
a forward slash starts down and goes up.

see here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backslash

just testing, i might be wrong, not about the theory of what a backslash but how to use it here

alright, warrens right, it's a forward slash

Like Tim Out of Mind showed in his post!
