When you view a video on youtube it gives you the code right there for embedding on a webpage page. Or are you asking/looking for something different?
Something like:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/somevideo=en"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/somevideo=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Hi
Thank you for your information.
I tried just copying the code and then pasting it onto my webpage and then uploading the website again.
What happens is: I just see the code pasted on the webpage...there is no video streaming..i have to click on the link and then see the video.
I want to be able to embed a video like this website
www.kungfuz.com
Notice that the homepage has a video
How can I do that to my website
www.us-shaolinkungfu.com

Download the video first. There are many free software programs out there that will allow you to download and then convert the video to a file type of your choice.
example: http://youtubedownload.altervista.org/
or Google for it and see the many others that you may like

This probably means you haven't pasted the code correctly.
In design view (where you want the video link to appear) try this: >>Insert >> Web Component >> Advanced Controls >>HTML >> (paste code) >>OK >>Publish Site.

That site that you referenced that had a youtube video that worked uses javascript. Go here for step by step instructions to do it: warning - it is a complicated process.

Yep the code on the page still isn't what it needs to be to get the video to work.
You need to paste in EXACTLY what's on the youtube page which is:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/DitS09JbFTI&hl=en"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/DitS09JbFTI&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>
And make sure you don't add any other markup at all.

But you were initially as I recall, right?
I'll look for your email - I may or may not be able to help.
In a previous thread I remember OutFronters' advising you against audio/video which I mirror.
Oh, and BTW check with Stokia Network - I don't see mention of video files being supported on their Features page.
