Add a video to your blog posting

You can embed a video in a blog posting to make it available to readers.


To add a link to a video or demo to a blog posting, embed the information about the video in the HTML editor.

  1. Create a blog entry.

  2. Click the <h> button in the toolbar of the rich text editor so you can enter HTML tags.

  3. Copy the <embed> object information for the video you want to use and paste it into the editor. For example, on YouTube, copy the contents of the Embed field to the right of the video. When you paste it in, it will look something like this:

      <object height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/-mcbsrAXlAg&hl=en&fs=1"></param>
      <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
      <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/-mcbsrAXlAg&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" 
      		allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" height="344"></embed></object>
      

  4. Add any other text you want to display in the entry.

    You can click the <h> button again to toggle back to rich text mode for entering text.

  5. Save the entry.


When users view this post they can view the embedded video.
