I'm trying to create a Youtube video inserter script for my site. Long story short, I need to be able to prototype an HTML element and add a string into the element's innerHTML, like this:
myObj.insertVid(5sw2OvIgoO8);
I'm using jQuery to getElementsByClass("sip").

I'm trying to create a video box on a website that plays a youtube video and then automatically plays random recommended videos with no break in playback. An endless playlist created by youtube based on the initial video. Youtube uses Javascript API. I have never used Javascript before but i'm just trying to get the video to play as above. There are few tutorials online and I couldn't find anyone trying to do a similar thing.

<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/somevideourlhere" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
I am currently writing a CMS and I need a few minor variable values from the YouTube Api. I wish to embed a YouTube video into a page and then extract key information about that video such as:
1. The Title
2. The duration
3. The number of hits
I'm not using any framework so I'm not looking for any jquery shorthand. I just need to change the youtube video with a click.
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">
function changeVideo(vidSrc){
var link = vidSrc.href + "?version=3&hl=en_US&rel=0";
var movie = document.getElementById('embeddedMovie');
movie.setAttribute("src", link);
alert('SRC: ' + document.getElementById('embeddedMovie').src);
return false;
}
And the html:
Code:
<object width="560" height="315">
<param name="movie" id="embeddedParam" value="[URL]"></param>
<param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed id="embeddedMovie" src="[URL]" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="560" height="315" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true">
</embed></object>
The alert shows that the source is changing however the page just goes blank and the src is not updated in the markup. I also tried updating the parameter along with the movie but still no luck. Does the same on all browsers. If I use the same technique for images it works so I don't believe it to be any DOM loading issue.
how to Dynamically embedding youtube video?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a YouTube channel with many videos. The links to these Flash videos are talking to a page within my web site. On the web site, the video pops up in a tiny window on entry of the page, and it closes when you click the close button or it will fade away after it has played its way through.
So the scenario is this: The site looks great, but it doesn't on an iPad. Because I am linking to a Flash YouTube URL, it doesn't load on the non-Flash iPad device. I have done a lot of online reading for a week and discussed on many forums. However, everywhere I turn, I read articles about how what I'm trying to do is not possible--that no YouTube URL will ever play on the iPad. Is this true? If so, why can they play on the iPad YouTube app? What is the difference between the app and my web page?
I found many articles and videos referencing this fallback: [URL]
However, my problem with this fallback is that my videos are on YouTube. I am using a URL to talk to it, more specifically an ID. The client has done this purposely to save bandwidth on their server. I have the start of the Javascript looking like this:
function loadPlayer() {
var params = { allowScriptAccess: "always" };
var atts = { id: "myytplayer" };
[Code].....
Within the loadPlayer function, can I add fallbacks in here (after line 4)? If so, how do I go about writing one? I suppose I'm just lost on how to get the HTML5 video option to work with my project. I have heard YouTube is using HTML5 video in beta, and it may be running in a few months. Would this auto-correct my problem do you think?
Is there a way to find the native file in the YouTube channel and bypass the .swf reference?
I am embedding several youtube videos on a page, by default, youtube videos do not autoplay.
To get them to autoplay, one simply appends &autoplay=1 to the youtube url.
E.g. http://www.youtube.com/v/6YR0LGK_HHA&autoplay=1
(will autoplay)
As opposed to:
http://www.youtube.com/v/6YR0LGK_HHA
(will not autoplay)
Does anyone know of a cool trick for being able to do this when the client clicks on a JS link labelled Play Video (without refreshing the page)? Code:
Ok well I am trying to insert a youtube video into an iframe with designMode on so I have been doing":
Code:
iframeDoc.execCommand("inserthtml", false, "<object width='480' height='385'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/xlTyCymEM9g&hl=en_US&fs=1&'></param><param name='allowFullScreen' value='true'></param><param name='allowscriptaccess' value='always'></param><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/xlTyCymEM9g&hl=en_US&fs=1&' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowscriptaccess='always' allowfullscreen='true' width='480' height='385'></embed></object>");
However, it will not show the player at all.
Its a long shot posting here but the task I'm using a jQuery Carousel that has a youTube video embedded on one of the slides:
[URL]
I have is does any one know a way that when the user clicks a new slide the youTube video pauses, turns off, or at the very least the volume of the video is set equal to zero.
I'm trying to find out the height of an embedded youtube-video (what I wan't to do is hide all embeds when I open a facebox and replace them with a placeholder of equal size). I (basically) tried this:
It always alerts 18, at least for the yourubevideos I embedded.
I'm having a strange issue with the positioning of a youtube videobar in the the right sidebar, but it only seems to be happening on Chrome and Safari. When one of the video thumbnails in the bar is clicked, it's supposed to open a player video beside it, but in Chrome and Safari the player video opens elsewhere on the page. It appears to work fine in Firefox and IE7 (only other browsers I've been able to test it in so far).
When I take the website's existing HTML and CSS out of the equation and just test the videobar by inserting it in a blank HTML page (an example) the player opens in the correct position, which is a dynamic position calculated within the javascript of Google's Search API. I haven't changed it from the defaults, just copied it locally to the site. The bulk of the changes to Google's defaults that I've made were by placing the #videoBar div that contains the videobar itself within a styled #vidBarholder div with a background image. Both of those divs are then placed within the sidebar left floated containing div.

Take a look at this: [url] As you can see each img thumbnail has a title underneath. But I want the title to attach on the big player. It doesn't matter where exactly as long as I can access it with css.

I'm attempting to dynamically create a QuickTime embedded movie. I'm including the AC_Quicktime.js script which contains methods for creating the embedded movie easily and putting it into an existing DIV. This is working correctly, however the movie will not load. Here's the code that I'm using.

I wanted to start my research on the topic of slideshows here and ask if anyone knows what's the best method for creating a slideshow that should have the ability to display images and videos (and bookmark them)? It can be a plug-in, but this is for a client so it has to be okay for commercial use (and free).It should also be able to support other content like ads and polls/questionaires, in the form of a div. Also HTML 5 compatible with all the cross-browser compatibility one would expect.
View 4 Replies View Relatedis it possible to create a link in an email that will go to a site and run its javascript.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a sample page with three tabs (tabs.html). Tabs are displayed as follows:
<ul class="tabs">
<li><a href="javascript:tabSwitch('tab_1', 'content_1');" id="tab_1" class="active">Tab 1</a></li>
<li><a href="javascript:tabSwitch('tab_2', 'content_2');" id="tab_2">Tab 2</a></li>
<li><a href="javascript:tabSwitch('tab_3', 'content_3');" id="tab_3">Tab 3</a></li>
</ul>
The JavaScript used to switch tabs is:
function tabSwitch(active, number, tab_prefix, content_prefix) {
for (var i = 1; i < number+1; i++) {
document.getElementById(content_prefix+i).style.display = 'none';
document.getElementById(tab_prefix+i).className = '';
}
document.getElementById(content_prefix+active).style.display = 'block';
document.getElementById(tab_prefix+active).className = 'selected';
}
Now, by default, when I link to tabs.html, the first tab is set to active. Is it possible to create a link from another site that links to tabs.html and forces the second or third tab to be active?
Can anyone point me to a good tutorial for creating a site-level
search applet? I am trying to create a virtual catalog of sorts, and
I would like to be able to search the catalog and have the results
displayed on the same page with one column text and an image of the
product. I've seen several tutorials that create site-level searches
that will bring back a search results page with options to choose
from. I am looking to create a search that does not bring back this
"results" page, but displays an image of the product instead. Given
the nature of the products, search results will only bring back one
specific item, and so, I would like to skip the "results" page
altogether. Any thoughts?
allow me to create a poll on my site, and display results?

I am trying trying to create a site that will require a database. (much like facebook functions)
I am not new to programming, as I know Java and C++, but I am very new to the web development.
For security reasons (so I have heard), I would like to write this site in php. At the same time, I may need some client sided code. (Or do I?) I am not at all sure.
I know that facebook is written in php, and the site I am making basically has the majority of those functions.
Any inputs as to how I should go about choosing what language? As of now, my partner is learning javascript and mysql, while I am studying php and mysql.
I know that some sites implement both, javascript and php, but I was wondering if it is at all necessary to use both, and how would one know which code to write in what language.
I need to create multiple JavaScript clocks on my site based on the client location (I.e. Los Angeles, Houston, Orlando, etc). Nothing complicated... just text clocks to show the current time. With due credit to this site , I used their code as a starting point.
