   How do you put a YouTube video in your blog.
   I tried the video tab and it gave me what looked like a link but not the actual video.

   Thank you

   You can put something like this in your post. Change the width and height. Change the video ID in 2 places. This code is a little different than the embed code that YouTube gives; it should be valid XHTML.

   <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/fJdkRxKJaCU" width="575" height="400"><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/fJdkRxKJaCU" /></object>
