How To Embed Video In Articles
From Artist Organized Art
- Here are 3 Ways to Embed Media
1. Copy and paste html code in pairs
Familiar Example
YouTube
Pasted code for the above video
<object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/7KKE0f1FGiw&hl=en"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7KKE0f1FGiw&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed></object>
You can also just copy the embed tags and leave out the object and param tags like so: (its almost always exactly the same result)
YouTube
Pasted code for the above video
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7KKE0f1FGiw&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed>
Quick Hack!!
*If your html comes without pairs fix it and paste it like so:
without pairs
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7KKE0f1FGiw&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355" />
Just delete the " />" and close the tag with ">" then add a seperate closing tag such as </embed>... you end up with
fixed to with pairs
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/7KKE0f1FGiw&hl=en" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="355"></embed>
2. Copy and paste javascript
*For safety reasons this type of embed is prohibited on the normal wiki pages.
Pasted code for the above video
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://en.sevenload.com/pl/Q4p7sd2/500x408"></script>
3. Use our Wiki's Video Services Embed codes:
Manually type in these shorthand codes that exist between doubled brackets {{ }}
**This works in wiki articles pages, use the above methods for the user profile and user board pages.
Example format:
- {{#ev:service|id}}
-or-
- {{#ev:service|id|width}}
Where:
- service is the name of a video sharing service.
- id is the id of the video to include
- width (optional) is the width in pixels of the viewing area (height will be determined automatically)
