youtube

[iain sherriff]

I have a mod in my phpbb3 that uses BBcodes to embed youtube vids in posts.

eg     www.lowriderforums.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=16&t=1409

the mod is

Code Select Expand

<copy>
<file from="root/video.php" to="video.php" />
</copy>

<diy-instructions lang="en"><![CDATA[Go to the Administration Control Panel and navigate to the "Posting" tab,
then
to the "BBCodes" section. Click the "Add a new BBCode" button. The following
page is where you are to enter the information for the new BBCode.

    (1) In the "BBCode usage" area, enter the following:
    [video]{TEXT}[/video]

    (2) In the "HTML replacement" area, enter the following:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="video.php?link={TEXT}"></script>

    (3) In the "Help line" area, enter the following:
    Note: [video]link[/video]

    (4) In the "Settings" area, check the box for "Display on posting page" if
        you want a "video" button placed alongside the other BBCode buttons.

When that's all filled out, click "Submit".


and the php file is

I have coppermine latest version bridged to my phpbb3. [www.lowriderforums.com/cpm]
I cant host vids on my server which is why the embeded youtube mod is great for my users.
I have seen Nibblers mod for youtube on here but , while I can [usually] install a mod by copy/paste and follow basic instructions I dont understand what the mod does behind the scenes  :-\.
The BBcode mod seems very simple to me and works flawlessly................ can a version if this be used to embed youtube in my coppermine galleries?

Thanks in advance
