Un idea incredible - n’est pas?

Posted by Nicholas Gruen on Thursday, May 3, 2007


Hat tip to new blogger Leslie Katz.

For some reason the You Tube screen is not making it’s way through our software - but check this out. Dead simple really!

    If you cannot write in French, don’t…

    I was going to make a snotty joke too, about things being incroyable, but I see that Phil here has decided to take rudeness to an incroyable level.

    Ok - fair enough - can someone put up the real French for my edification - and Jacques how come the coding it pasted from You-Tube didin’t load the screen up on our site?

    Nick - it seems to stumble if you paste in the embedding code into the Visual Editor. Make sure to switch to the Code view for embedding.

    Hi Nicholas and thanks.

    I hope that you (and anyone else disposed to do so) have a look at the Stumblng Tumblr’s tumblelog regularly (http://stumblng.tumblr.com). It’s a strange feeling when producing such a thing not to know whether it’s actually being read by anyone else at all, so it’s comforting to know that somehow you found it.

    All the best.

    Leslie;

    I imagine you’ll get added to the Missing Link catchment - keep writing the good stuff and we’ll keep linking to you :)

    Jacques - I did paste it into the coding tab - not the visual editor. And it simply disappeared in the visual editor. Anyway, thx for rescuing it.

    “can someone put up the real French for my edification”

    It’s more, “une idée incroyable, n’est-ce pas ?” But I think you conveyed the sense of it, admirably.

    I’ve done a trial run in the same way as Nick, and it simply vanished for me as well.

    Is this fixable?

  10. Jacques Chester said:

    Hmm, that is odd. It worked fine for me. What browsers are you two using?

  11. skepticlawyer said:

    Firefox on Mac OS 10, Jacques.

  12. Nicholas Gruen said:

    Firefox.

  13. Jacques Chester said:

    Odd, I’m using Firefox on OS X as well. I can’t find anyone else saying anything other than “make sure to paste it in the code box”.

    The saem thing happened to me at Catallaxy as well. It got that way I had to stop posting YouTube vids, or get Jason to do them for me.

  15. Jacques Chester said:

    Did it stop working after you moved to Bluehost?

  16. skepticlawyer said:

    I think it may have done, yes. I’d been able to post them beforehand in Safari, as long as I turned off the visual editor. Now it doesn’t work in either.
