Re: (ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube
3 FRICKING MINUTES to find the answer... 3 FRICKIN MINUTES In the 10 years you have been doing this you have probably never actually coded 1 lick of it yourself. Am I going to give the code to you? Umm no You know how you send everyone those oh-so lame off-list vulgar filled messages .. including me... oops.. now no code for for the PITA. However, I did give the code to someone and told them that if they felt you should have it then they will post it if not then oh well, at least I have it. and another (ot).. priceless Dominic, have you implemented the API for this purpose? If so I'd like to steal a few lines to save some time? Thanks. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

(ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube
hi all, I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically launch/redirect to a url at the end of a youtube video (flash content) play, yeah, crazy.

Re: (ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube
It's a kludge, but if you know how long the video is, then remove the controls and have it start as the page opens. Use a meta redirect to redirect the page after so many seconds.

There's a full js API to the YouTube player. Ideally, you'd hook into that, listen for a FinishedPlaying event and then do as you wish. http://tinyurl.com/noptmw :p Dominic 2009/9/1 Don L do...@yahoo.com hi all, I'm wondering if there's a way to automatically launch/redirect to a url at the end of a youtube video (flash content) play, yeah, crazy.

Re: (ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube
Using the API would clearly be the *clean* option - but the problem is of course one of time. However, I can't see another way of doing this; i.e. detecting the end of a youtube video playing. I'd suggest you'd spend more time figuring out a hack than you would picking up the API. Dominic 2009/9/1 Don L do...@yahoo.com There's a full js API to the YouTube player.

Re: (ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube
+1 @Dominic I gotta believe that working with a published and documented API is, by definition, the LEAST messy option out there. If YouTube gives you exactly what you need to get to where you want to be with a few lines of JS, I would recommend doing that! ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: (ot) automatical re-diretion from youtube
I certainly wouldn't worry about redirecting them at the end of the video.. I have seen the said video and you are better off figuring out how to capture a browser close during the first 10 seconds if you plan on getting any of those people. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
