Youtube IFrame

[kyleabeauchamp]

I was having difficulty getting embedded youtube iframes. I think this is probably the preferred way to handle most videos, so it would be good for these to work.

<iframe data-src="http://www.slashdot.com">
</iframe>

<iframe data-src="http://www.google.com">
</iframe>

<iframe width="640" height="385" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/T0w7thr_d04?html5=1"></iframe>

The top iframe works, but the bottom two do not. For the google example, this is because Google has a "no-iframe" security feature. I've also tried setting the HTML5 tag. This makes the youtube page appear, but disappear after clicking play.

PS: I don't expect you to solve this issue--I'm just documenting my progress here so we have a paper trail for instructional purposes.

The ipython notebook uses an iframe to display youtube videos in the notebook: https://github.com/ipython/ipython/blob/master/IPython/lib/display.py#L42. They're using a slightly different format, but it's still an iframe.
