So I was wondering if I can out a YouTube video in my comments box. I tried using the BB Code:

[yt]video id[/yt]

But I don't think that's supported here. If worse comes to worse, I can post a link, I suppose. But I'd rather have the video on my page. (I also don't want it embedded and showing up on my previous pages- I just need it for one particular strip.)

Thanks.

Chris

I'm pretty sure Volte has made it so that you can simply post the Youtube code in full... You know <object or <embed and all that? just post what they have on the site.

While I couldn't get that to work, I searched the forums and found the following code:

{swf width=425 height=350}http://www.youtube.com/watch/v/videoID{/swf}

I replaced the {
with [

It worked pretty sweet!
You can see it in effect on tomorrow's comic (3/26/07)

Thanks for the help!

Chris
