[vijuram]

Hi

the code is {youtube}AVghsPP_Rn4{/youtube}

replace the { and } with [ and ] , respectively

Though it appears here the video does not appear on the page. It simply displays a white image. It would be great if you could send me the HTML code and I will try exactly and let you know. Thanks for your response. I really appreciate your help.

Thanks

Can you view videos normally at youtube.com?

I suspect you don't have flash installed . . .

try this code:

Code: [Select]

I tried that still it does not show. Here is my article "Convert a DVD case to Robot!" where you can see the code you gave me converted to a string.
I have the flash installed and no problem in seeing youtube videos and other videos. For e.g. I tried copying the code into a separate .html file and I am able to see the video in the browser. Am I missing something?
