|| SportsShooter.com: Member Message Board Emailing embed code? Shelley Cryan, Photographer New England | CT | USA | Posted: 10:07 AM on 05.20.09 ->> I'd like to email a client the embed code for a video (not a link to the video -- the actual embed code). Sure, she can get the code if she cuts and pastes from my online video, but it'd be easier for a variety of reasons if I could just email it to her. But when I include the code in an email, the recipient never sees it - it disappears. How do I email html embed code to someone? Thanks for your help.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

The coded is probably still in the message, but the progam they are using on their end does recognize it. You will need to make sure the client/recipient is using a program that is compatible or have html messaging enabled in their email client.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

Most email systems filter embed code for various reasons (privacy, security, etc.). Even images are filtered by many systems (GMail, yahoo, etc.). Create a nice standalone page for the video and mail the link. That's pretty much your best shot at it.  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?

I was hoping there was some character I could put before/after the code to make it show up, or some other quick fix, but it's good to know the limitations. I appreciate the input.  This post is:  Informative (0) | Funny (0) | Huh?

That's honestly the easiest way. The only possible screw-up is forgetting to include the attachment--which I do far more frequently than I should admit!  This post is:  Informative (1) | Funny (0) | Huh?
