Please see the post that follows. I originally posted a very cumbersome method.

I realized that there is an even simpler way of posting videos from YouTube. I never noticed it before now.
Use the Movie icon in the Post Reply dialogue box. All you have to do is to copy the URL string/link from your YouTube page to the right of your video and paste it into the YouTube File Name box in the Movie Properties dialogue box that pops up when you click the Movie icon . The Dialogue box looks like this: Click Preview if you want and then OK to close the Movie Properties box, and you are done. |

Is there another option for posting YouTube videos from the IPad? I don't get the movie icon even in the full editor mode.

Just use the BBcodes for posting YouTube videos: "["TUBE]File Name[/TUBE] Remove the quote marks ( " ) that I added so you could see the codes.
Get rid of the iThing and get an Android tablet! I just reread your post. Clock on the link at the bottom to the Classic site. You are probably only seeing the Mobile site. Edited by samcj2a - 13 Oct. 2013 at 11:16pm |

Thanks Sam. You either love them or hate them but I have grown to love the iThing.
Even in the classic site mode it does not show up. BB code is what I was looking for. |

Well, even though I am an Android bigot, I do have an iPad!
