    Hi, I want to call an external file into my webpage that shows a youtube video. I could just paste the "embed" code from youtube on my page, but I would rather call it from an external file so that my page code would be less bloated, and the page text would be closer to the top, for SEO purposes. Can anyone please help me?

    Thanks

    You can't. As is, OBJECT (and the non-standard, properietary and invalid EMBED) elements call external files as it is.

    If you want to use a Flash file though, I suggest you read Flash Satay.
