Variable Youtube

Written on 05/09/20 at 03:54:43 EST by GabbyGirl

Im trying to load a variable for five you tube videos to randomly grab one as a variable and display it on pageload

code:

<script> 
    var vtube=new Array() 
    vtube[0]='UT000008' 
    vtube[1]='UT000008' 
    vtube[2]='UT000008' 
    vtube[3]='UT000008' 
    vtube[4]='UT000008' 
    var whichvtube=Math.floor(Math.random()*(vtube.length)) 
    var vtubeselected=(vtube[whichvtube]) 
</script> 
<!--I use javascript to assign the videos into an array then select one randomly. I then attempt to pass the variable of the random selected video in the iframe --> 
 
<iframe width="280" height="210" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/+vtubeselected?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

using jQuery: try this one. (iframe is the id of the iframe tag)

code:

$(document).ready(function(){ 
$('#iframe').src='http://www.youtube.com/embed/+vtubeselected?rel=0'+<whatever no want to add> 
});
