Thread: YouTube Video in Product Description

Is it possible to embed a YouTube video in the product description? If so, can someone walk me through the steps to make this happen? Thanks!

Sure. Just invoke the script below in your product description using the HTML-mode (<>).

HTML Code:

<object height="355" width="425">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/CoiFGva_JoY&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x006699&amp;color2=0x54abd6&amp;border=0">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/CoiFGva_JoY&amp;rel=0&amp;color1=0x006699&amp;color2=0x54abd6&amp;border=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="355" width="425"></object>

You change the indicated link to your video.

I couldn't get it to work. It just leaves a big blank space on my page. Here's the YouTube link. What should I insert into my page?

Here's the code I tried:

<object height="355" width="425">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jy8PKzBKizA&rel=0&color1=0x006699&color2=0 x54abd6&border=0">
<param name="wmode" value="transparent"><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jy8PKzBKizA&rel=0&color1=0x006699&color2=0 x54abd6&border=0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" height="355" width="425"></object>

Got it working. Thanks.
