Embedding YouTube Videos in PHP

Question:

How can I display or embed a YouTube video in PHP using either its URL or embed code?

Answer:

To embed a YouTube video using the 11-character video ID:

1. Obtain the video ID from the YouTube URL.
2. Store the video ID in your database.
3. To display the video at a desired location within your page, retrieve the video ID from the database and insert the following code into that location:

<code class="php"><object width="425" height="350" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ahg6qcgoay4" type="application/x-shockwave-flash">
  <param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/Ahg6qcgoay4" />
</object></code>

Replace "Ahg6qcgoay4" with your actual video ID. This embed code will display a 425px wide by 350px high video player at the specified location within your page.
