Hi
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I use the youtube widget on iweb to embed a youtube video into one of my web pages (I'm using the layered paper template). On preview of the site the video appears on the page but after I upload the files/folders to my server and then try to view the page it appears without the video on it.
Any ideas?
Thanks

What's the URL of your site so we can examine it first hand?
OT
Try using the full embed code in an HTML Snippet...

These files are not on the server :
http://abubakrmasjid.net/Scripts/Widgets/YouTube/localizedStrings.js
http://abubakrmasjid.net/Scripts/Widgets/YouTube/YouTube.css
http://abubakrmasjid.net/Scripts/Widgets/YouTube/YouTube.js
So check for their presence.

BTW, the car is not Russian.
Hi Wyodor
Thanks for your reply. Where do I find those files to upload to my server? I can't see them anywhere in my iweb folder to export!
BTW the car did look Russian!
Sorry Roddy I'm not clear on exactly what you mean. Can you explain in simple terms? Do I not use the youtube widget at all?
They are in the scripts folder, but you need to publish this to a local folder from iWeb first. Publish your whole site from iWeb to a local folder and then you find the scripts folder in the published site and upload all relevant folders to your server using an ftp programme such as the free Cyberduck or Yummy ftp available from the Mac App store.
No you don't use the YouTube widget. Just use an ordinary html snippet and copy and paste all the code into this and then click on Apply. However, you may not need to do this if it is just a matter of uploading and scripts folder to your server which seem to be missing.
Thanks Ethmoid that was really helpful.
Best wishes.
