BBcode Question: YouTube

6th

Ok first off let me say I know nothing about code!

Ok so I was putting youtube tags on a forum and I thought I had set up the code properly .... seems I didnt. Attached is a screen of the code and the problem is that no matter what ID (e.g. eBGIQ7ZuuiU ) I put in I get the vid I used when setting up the code!

Ideas?



Cheers

change your youtube links. Your linking to a video in the html...

you want to put the video id in the link so put :
http://www.youtube.com/v/

instead of:
http://www.youtube.com/v/eBGIQ7ZuuiU&hl=en

leave everything blank after the "v/" the bbcode will add

http://www.youtube.com/v/+"bbcode youtube number" = http://www.youtube.com/v/eBGIQ7ZuuiU

I don't know much about BB codes, but you don't seem to be using the value that's being sent in by the user. Is there a param tag (not for shockwave/flash, but for BB codes) that you are supposed to populate?

for example:

<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}"></param>

Yeah you're right... put: value="http://www.youtube.com/v/{param}" in the param and embed tags and you should be set to go!

*Edit: Actually I figured it out. Thanks again lads.

You'd think it should be the first part (vid=db8419f41d890df802dca330e), but the defining parameter appears to be videoConfigXmlCode.php?pg=video_4933_no_0_extsite
