Anyone know how to embed videos on to message boards? Seems like no two boards work the same way and nor does the embed code work.

If you remove the "object" tags from the embed codes, sometimes it'll work. It doesn't on here, though.

Can you imagine the mess it would be if the Viagra spambots could embed videos?

I'd rather have the Viagra ads than ones for, ah, "alternative lifestyle" sites. :oops:

Those of us who don't have broadband connections certainly hope that you never find a way to do that

The php program as is doesn't allow for embedded videos here. There could be an add-on that may exist but we will never implement it because of those still on non-broadband connections. :Kool

Embedded videos from places like YouTube and Hulu will not play unless you hit the Play button in the video window, FYI. But I do understand what you're saying, rocky.
