Viewing Embedded Videos on my Phone

[treebound]

Hi,

In one thread someone posted links to some youtube training videos. I could not see any links in the message, but when I replied with quote the links were in the quoted text within the edit/post box. When I replied the links disappeared again.

I'm guessing this is either due to my current status (still new to the site within the 3-25 post range), or is due to viewing the forum with my phone. Just curious if links only appear once I get to over 25 posts, or is it a phone issue.

Thank you for the site and for all the work done to maintain and manage it.

I don't know what you're talking about. Links are clickable. Like

this one right here and show up in a different color. You don't need to see the URL to click the link.

Thanks for the fast reply.

Post #5 in the following thread references some videos but the links nor highlighted text appear:

I can see the blue text in your reply which is clickable, but the ones in the noted thread are not clickable. Might be the formatting, or related to older style linking, or just my phone browser.

Okay, I just checked another thread:
http://thesandtrap.com/forum/threads...21-%28video%29

And the same thing. I'm declaring this a phone issue or limitation on my end, as I suspected it might be. US Cellular and a Blackberry Curve. I double checked using the OperaMini browser and the same results. Something about embedded video links and the Blackberry or my provider.

Bummer for me. At least I can use the ReplyWithQuote to capture the video link and then cancel the reply.

Sorry to bother you. Thanks for looking into it though.

Mike

Your phone doesn't do video (or YouTube flash video, anyway). That's all.
