I just made something Tex related I think some people in here may get giddy about. I want to show it in the forum under a post, but I dont know how. See, it's a flash file, a *.swf 240px*135px. I have the url for the file. What code do I need to type in so it can show up in a post?

Please help, I'm dying to show off!

When you make your post, there should be a button above the text entry box that says "URL." Click that button, and you'll see "" appear in the text box. Type the add ... tag with "" Although, I'm surprised you're not able to simply enter a link just by typing the address. Usually, the board will covert urls automatically... :?

Ah, well in that case, I think you're outta luck. phpBB only allows for certain formats to be embedded in a post.
