    This white box is the result of putting the entire url between the youtube tags.

    You don't put the whole IRL in between the [ youtube ] marks. Just the code number.


    So, if the IRL is:


    "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r5Bv6XS1V3A"


    Just put the "r5Bv6XS1V3A" part in between the marks (without the quotes).


    r5Bv6XS1V3A


    For yours, it would be [ youtube ]76vgtDxnilE[ /youtube ] and you would get:


    76vgtDxnilE

    I know AB, but a lot of people will do it with the whole link. On some sites if you do that the youtube link will cause a redirect to youtube instead of just showing the video. I was testing what would happen if I put the whole link. On this site it just gives you a white box.
