Just hit the "quote" button at the bottom right. If the person posting has a video in his/her message, just hit quote button and all the content in THEIR message will be in your replay.

If you referring to posting a video w/in a new message, you need the embed coding from the video source...ie. youtube, dailymotion, etc

yeah come on SilentFox. the embed code is just under the video on youtube and dailymotion, and on some sites its just to the right. just look for the word "embed" and copy and paste that code to your post. i thought that was common knowledge by now.

You know what they say when you assume ...

By the way, it is not always that easy. I have tried several times to copy video code from YouTube and for some reason it corrupts coming over. Haven't figured out why yet. The code looks perfect and yet won't run.

Its not that hard, guyz! Just copy the EMBED code from the video. One way to see if your message works is to hit preview first before posting. THEN you'll know if its corrupt, screwed up, whatever....and if you need to recopy the coding. Your message +video should show up...if not, restart your message

This isn't rocket science....its ALizee science!!

DUDE! there is SOOO much that is NOT "common knowledge" that it fills books! You've grown up with the interweb. When i was your age, there wasn't one to speak of.

You really don't know (can't really) that all this knowledge is "frontloaded" on younger peeps, and its "backloaded" on us old guys (sometimes the younger guys, but you get my drift).

Common knowledge changes with the ages man - just wait - in 35 years you'll be going "AAAAHHHH! NOW i know what Edcognito was talking about!"....
