Am I cursed. I copied and pasted exacrly the embed code from my youtube video and it comes out on the webpage as 00:00 and there is no video. How can I get it to appear on the page?
I don't want to make it public sorry but I copied the embed code right from youtube...do you think there's another code to use?
Are you using some sort of CMS like Wordpress? Some CMS do not allow straight HTML in a post (Wordpress is picky, and can causes problems with HTML by inserting line breaks and paragraphs in the code).
Thanks for your help! No I'm inserting it directly into an html file as html code, the code straight from youtube. hmm...I use a simple html editor, I don't use Wordpress.
play at youtube, is it working on you tube? might sound like a stupid question, but I have had some videos that just were broken, and would not work correctly. also check to see if you are running any javascript in the page that might halt the page load, more so for PHP, but can cause a problem if you have a java script error, but it sounds like something else. let us know how it works out.
I got it to work, sorry. It has a black screen as a preview (before you press play on the video) I was just looking at the black preview screen before you press play and thought it wasn't on. Stupid me!
I don't see how it would be a PHP error, PHP = Hypertext Pre-Processor (meaning it parses on the server side before the server sends the HTML to the user's browser) so if it was an error in PHP, his page wouldn't have loaded to the point of showing him the video (unless of course he had error handling setup properly, and even then)... Food for thought. BTW: Glad to hear you got it working.
