Make YouTube Embed HTML Validate

Published in: ASP

URL: http://www.nealgrosskopf.com/tech/thread.asp?pid=18

YouTube offers a method for users and developers to embed video on their web pages. Unfortunately the code that they use doesn't validate. Use this function to make YouTube's embed code validate.

Plain TextExpand

Function YouTubeCleanup(embed,link)
 
	if len(replace(embed,"youtube","")) << len(embed) then
		url = "http://www.youtube.com/v/" & replace(link,"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=","") & "&hl=en"
		embed = "<object type=""application/x-shockwave-flash"" data=""" & url & "&hl=en""><param name=""movie"" value=""" & url & """></object>"
	end if	
	YouTubeCleanup = embed
 
End Function
