    I'm using the Youtube tags but the video doesn't come up on the screen.

    Thanks for any help.

    Can you link me to what you were trying to post?

    The video may have embedding disabled by the video author.

    If you're posting the entire web address inside the youtube tags, that won't work.

    What you need to do is post the garbled collection of letters that comes after the = sign inside the youtube tags and only that garbled collection of letters.

    And as Sparky said, some videos can't be embedded as they're set up that way, though you should still get a box saying that if you do the above.
