For the past two weeks I can't post youtube links as well. I thought it's a firefox thing but it happens with the explorer too. Any ideas why?

A try...

Edit: Still not working.

Funny when i went to the source of your link I couldn't get it up eithher But when I looked for a link it worked

Looking at the URL your link has a lock on it

I conclude that the source URL with a security lock is the problem

I think you have to do that or just take the s out of https. I only ever use the bit at the end to so I don't have to worry about the url not working.

Thanks guys for trying. But I always copied the url and pasted it between the [ tube ] and [ /tube ]. How come now it's not working? and it happens with every video I try to post not just locked ones.

I'll try what you did Ian...

I just tried to isolate just the numbers/ letters bit so included everything after the =

Should work on any video, try it.
