You can obviously post the entire doc as an attachment, if you like, but you may want to just cut and paste the entire document inside your post.

Your Word document in your post will look a lot better using that editor option. Smiler How To Blog From Your Cell Phone (Moblog) Share your life as it happens by posting to using your cell phone! Mobile posting is commonly referred to as 'Moblogging'. You simply email your text and/or photo(s) from cell phone to a unique email that belongs to you.

YouTube is a very popular site for video sharing, so I'll use it in my example. Take a YouTube video page, for example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2GWPOPSXGYI Notice that to the right of the video there are two separate text inputs: one for URL and one for embed. You want to use the embed text to embed the movie into your post. Here's the embed code from the above link: If you are using the WYSIWYG editor (enabled by default, but not available in Safari on Mac), there are two different ways that you can embed a flash movie into your post. The first is by using the flash button on the WYSIWYG editor. The flash button is the button with an "f" on it just to the right of the smilie face button. In order to use the flash button, you need to get just the URL to the flash movie itself. In the embed code above, the flash url can be found in the embed src attribute (it is also in the movie param's value attribute). In this case, the url is: http://www.youtube.com/v/2GWPOPSXGYI Click the flash button on the toolbar. Enter the URL into the text field that says "Flash-File (.swf)". You may want to enter a height and width for the video, too. A width of 425px and height of 350px are common values for YouTube-size videos. You should notice a flash component inserted into the body of the message. The alternative method is to use the "HTML" button at the far right of the WYSIWYG toolbar. Click that button and copy and paste the entire contents of the embed HTML code into the part of your message that you want the video to display. Click update and you'll see the flash component inserted into the body of your message. Finally, if you are on Safari for Mac (or do not use the WYSIWYG editor), you can embed a flash movie by simply copying and pasting the entire embed HTML code directly into the textarea of your post. Upon posting, you'll see the flash movie embedded in your post. And for example's sake, here is the aforementioned video Reply With Quote If you are commenting or replying, you may quote existing content on the page (for instance, someone else's post) by highlighting the text/content you wish to refer to and then clicking on the comment/reply button/link. The highlighted text will then be automatically inserted into the comment/reply box. Toggle WYSIWYG Watch This Post Add Attachments Flash Required!
