    Cant post videos and photos without html

    SO ever since my computer did it's latest automatic update for windows I cant insert photos or video. The little pop up window just doesn't do anything. So I have to type the html coding instead. I tried different browsers, disabling addons etc. It will work maybe 1/10 times using the insert button. I never had a problem before. Anyone else experiencing this or find a solution?

    I had my first time trouble loading pictures yesterday. The "Insert" button didn't seem to want to work, but I thought it was just me. With mine I was asking it to reference the files locally. Were you also trying to do that, or just link via html?

    Well, we're due for a patch update, so perhaps that will fix things. Let me know if anyone continues to have issues with this.

    You know what's strange? MerNetwork isn't the only place I'm having trouble with this. I'm also having issues with LiveJournal the same as here, and another forum! I'm curious- what browser(s) are you guys using? I'm using Firefox.

    so it seemed this only worked for me for a day. Now it's back to not working. I even have a different computer right now (mine is in the shop) and it still wont post them unless I code it by hand

    Dumb question here:
    I wanted to upload a really short videoclip to show a tail, but I can only put in a link to a video that's uploaded somewhere already?
    Is this the only way it works?
    No upload from computer possible?

    Because I don't have a youtube or such account.

    type [video ] in front of the url without the space, and [/ video ] at the end of the video url without the space. That's the code to input a video.

    Does anyone know if its possible to upload a video directly on here from an iPad? My video isn't posted anywhere like Facebook or YouTube. I tried uploading it as a picture...it compressed the video but then I got a message that it was invalid. Any ideas?

    No - you have to host your video someplace else. You can upload it to YouTube, but set it so it's unlisted. That way only people with the link can view the video. So if you posted here, it will show up, but it won't be available for people looking at your account or search. You can also use sites like photobucket.
