embedding video in Blogger

To display a Youtube video in Blogger, you need to copy the EMBED code, and paste it into the Blogger posting.
It just does not work to copy the link to your Youtube video- you need to use the embed code to wrap the video and give it a

Here is an example of the code.
-- first the size of the frame iframe height="315" nbsp="nbsp" p="p" width="560"
-- then the location of the video (the URL)
-- written as src=http://www.youtube.com/embed/5Ajxfcoenmc
 --  finally, the instructions of how to display it which looks like this--
frameborder="0" allowfullscreen>

I removed some of the code here so you can start to see what is in the background as instructions to the computers.


The embed button will be on the same page that displays your Youtube video.
Notice below, that you need to copy and paste the code. Copy it from the Youtube page after pressing the button that says 'EMBED'. Then paste this code into your Posting on Blogger.
Good luck!
