This tutorial illustrates how to use validating code for embedding videos within a Mambo web site.
Do you want to include videos from Google or YouTube but you also want your site to validate?
There is an excellent article on List Apart that will explain what to do: http://www.alistapart.com/stories/flashsatay/
But, here's what I do:
Here is the Google code for embedding a particular video:
<embed style="width:400px; height:326px;" id="VideoPlayback" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" src="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-4216011961522818645&hl=en" flashvars=""> </embed>
Here is my code:
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-4216011961522818645" width="350" height="292" > <param name="movie" value="http://video.google.com/googleplayer.swf?docId=-4216011961522818645" /> <param name="FlashVars" value="playerMode=embedded" /></object>
NOTE: This code should be all in one continual line, without breaks. The breaks showing here are simply to allow the code to display correctly within the width of this template.
You can see this code in action on my site here: http://mambo-tutorials.com/installing-mambo
