this is complements of our resident website wizard, stephen!

stephen, this is a little embarassing, but that info you gave me on how to post up video?  i put it somewhere safe so i would not lose it, and now i can't find it.  can you explain it to me again?  thanks!  alan

Alan,

I understand.... it happens to the best of us.

1) You need to upload your video to youtube or google video.  Keep
that page open in a separate browser tab or window, you'll need to
refer back to it later

2) Open a new page and go to your website and do a new post (add
whatever text you want at this point) .. make sure and completely post
it

3) Open a new page and go to http://www.alantani.com/video.php
( You should see the text of your last post --the one you did in step
2--- in the text box )

4) go back to the youtube/google video page from step 1 and locate the
"Embed" code on the page.. copy the whole thing to the clipboard
5) paste it into the text box on the video page (the one from step 3)

6) click the Save button

Try it out and let me know if you hit any snags.
