Can someone pleae explain the proper way to embed YouTube vidoes? I thought you could just copy the embed link that you find on the video page, and then paste it after clicking the YouTube button above, but I could not get it to work.
Also... just a suggestion, I noticed there is an embed option on Street View. I have seen Street View pictures embedded in other web sites, could we do that here since we use it so much?

Re: Embedding videos
No. What you have to do is click the Youtube button before you paste the link in.
The code will look like this: [YouTube]http://youtube.com/whatevervideoisbeingshownhere[/YouTube]
As for street view, I haven't really explored that option yet.
EDIT: After looking things over, the embed code on Street View won't work on this forum, and there are no codes available for Street View right now, so it ain't going to happen yet.

Re: Embedding videos
I realize what I was doing wrong now... I was pulling the link off the wrong part of YouTube. I was thinking it was the link on the right, but that is apparently for the person who posted the video.

That embed info is for use in HTML based blogs & sites.cabman701 wrote:I realize what I was doing wrong now... I was pulling the link off the wrong part of YouTube. I was thinking it was the link on the right, but that is apparently for the person who posted the video.
