How do you make HTML tags for vidoes that are in Windows Media Player format?

I have my own forum, I need HTML code for embeding videos into the forums posts and threads. I uploaded some videos on youshare.com, but they do not offer HTML codes, does anyone know how to make them for vidoes that are being played in Windows Media Player on the web.

For Example, how would you make HTML for this video?

    "Being an Ad-Financed website, hotlinking is not allowed on any kind of files uploaded to our servers."

    so you can't do it, I even tried some tricks but they seem to have a few protections in place, best to find another host that allows hotlinking. if you aren't easily offended by pornography, i ran across this free host the other day that might work: http://www.hidebehind.com/ they offer: 20 mb max file size. and host types: mov, mpeg, avi, asf & wmv

    here is the html to make a media player: (I just did view-source on the page you listed. (don't type the *s)

    <*object id="Player" name="Player" width="480" height="385" classid="CLSID:6BF52A52-394A-11d3-B153-00C04F79FAA6" standby="Loading Video..." type="application/x-oleobject"*>

    <*param name="URL" value="http://kappa.zshare.net/download/29bd82ae6f5feb914...

    <*param name="AllowChangeDisplaySize" value="True"*>

    <*param name="AutoSize" value="False"*>

    <*param name="DisplaySize" value=0*>

    <*param name="ShowControls" value="True"*>

    <*param name="showstatusbar" value="True"*>

    <*param name="AutoRewind" value="True"*>

    <*param name="autoStart" value="true"*>

    <*embed name="Player" src="http://kappa.zshare.net/download/29bd82ae6f5feb914... type="application/x-mplayer2" width="480" height="385" ShowStatusBar="1" AutoSize="true" AutoStart="true" loop="true" DisplaySize="0" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/Downloads/Content...

    your video html embed code will be this....

    <embed src="http://kappa.zshare.net/download/53336a6b6d07e2b44... width="480" height="385" >

    copy and paste this code into your post and to link another video, just change the url of the video

    to find the url of the video, go to the page that plays the video, click view, then source, in notepad, press edit, then find, type in "embed" and copy and paste the new url and replace the old one in the code
