You Tube within Sharepoint

It is possible to display videos from You Tube within any of your MOSS 2007 sites. Simple go to http://www.youtube.com/ and find a video you want to display. To the right of the video you'll see a section 'titled' embed with a load of code next to it. You need to highlight this code and copy it.

Next, navigate to your Sharepoint site, and add a 'Content Editor' web part. In the settings of this web part, click on 'source editor' and paste in the code you copied. It will look something like this:


Click 'save' and the editor will close, click 'ok' in the web part settings and you'll be taken back to your page. You're new You Tube video should be displayed there.
