    I'm trying to post an embedded video to the Jazz & Blues forum but all I'm getting is a blank message. Tried Firefox, IE and Chrome but the results are the same. Checked all my user options and nothing seems amiss. Any help is appreciated.

    I presume you're trying to add a Youtube video? If so, instructions for posting Youtube videos can be found here

    I know how to post YouTube videos. The problem is that the post isn't showing up on boards.

    I've just fixed that for you. This is what you posted:

    [noparse]
    [/noparse]

    whereas all you needed to post is this;

    [noparse]
    [/noparse]

    You just copy the code from the url, rather than clicking on the embed button on Youtube. The link I posted gives detailed instructions.

    Thanks. I guess that's what you get from assuming that you know instead of reading the detailed instructions.
