Has anyone got a bb code replacement for youtube working with vb3.6 I tried to set one up today only I just get a white square instead of the video embedding properly.

example:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tEkKhMVoS4

to be replaced by

<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="{param}"></param><embed src="{param}" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object>

and this is the string from the generated html
now to me this looks correct however it simply refuses to display the actual player

<div id="post_message_78147"><object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tEkKhMVoS4"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7tEkKhMVoS4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="350"></embed></object></div>

works with the code you posted above, looks like your trying to embed a web page - as a movie object - which wont work :)
