Video to website - man, I don't even know the right questions to ask

@ Les Wilson:

I'm totally new to Vimeo - thanks for the tip, will try to understand this.

Question: Did you intend for all the code to show in your post? Or was that code supposed to provide a link or something? So sorry, I'm a bit lost regarding the intended purpose of that code - to wit:

!<iframe src="http://player.vimeo.com/video/23393588" width="400" height="300" frameborder="0"></iframe><p><a href="http://vimeo.com/23393588">The Encounter; and The Visit - Paramahansa Yogananda Teaches Me Kriya Yoga</a> from <a href="http://vimeo.com/larrydreavisphd">Larry Dominus Reavis</a> on <a href="http://vimeo.com">Vimeo</a>.</p>

Take the exclamation point off at the beginning and copy/paste all that code into your webpage inside the body section of the html.

That code uses an HTML technique called an iframe for the actual video. There's some additional HTML code that displays text links for the title, your name and the Vimeo site

The "code" block above is a rather handy feature of this forum. To use it, use square brackets around an open code tag, and a close code tag, eg. code and /code (with square brackets around each).
