Thanks Alan for your help. Have two more questions related to this:
1. In a thread bellow Massimo suggested to deprecate "embed', but without it, the video will not be embedded, only link will be displayed. Should I stick to embed, or look for some other solution? https://groups.google.com/d/topic/web2py/0O8db-UTZk4/discussion 2. Is there any way to set the size of the iframe through MARKMIN? I found width=270, height=230 displays nicely commands at the bottom of the youtube video.
