To use the youtube tags:

youtubeVideoID

You need the YouTube video ID from either the URL of the video, or the EMBED code that YouTube generates for it. Edited January 26, 2009 by Sayonara³

Sweet. First test I put the whole URL. Second test I put just the last characters of the URL (after the "watch?v=). Third test I grabbed the ID out of the embed code area.

 

Is there an easier/quicker way to find the YouTubeID?

I accidentally missed a bit of the code out which is now fixed. You can grab the video ID from either the video URL or the EMBED code and either will work (for they are the same ID). I can't see an easier way of doing it unfortunately.

No worries. That's easy enough. I was just confused when I grabbed the ID off the URL and it failed. Looking above, I can now see that TEST2 has gone from Failed to Successful, so your code change must have done the trick.

 

This is a cool addition to the site. Thanks for letting us play in your sandbox.
