Ryan94 Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Ok, so i'm a highschool student in indiana, and i have web design and my teacher only goes so fast and i've wanted to learn how to do web design for a while so i'm learning really fast and want to get ahead. We are doing a project on movie stuff. I wanted to be the only one who knows what their doing and i was hoping to be able have Youtube player in frame and then Have a drop box menu thing under the frame and select a movie from that menu and it will play a movie preview in the frame. I have tried myself to mess with tags and i also looked all over the internet but i can't figure it out. Can someone help me please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Synook Posted October 1, 2011 Share Posted October 1, 2011 I'm not sure what sort of "preview" you are thinking of, but if you just want to load a different Youtube video into the frame depending on the selected option, then you can modify the frame's source using JavaScript. Alternatively, you could embed the Youtube videos instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ryan94 Posted October 1, 2011 Author Share Posted October 1, 2011 Like a movie preview. But how would i do that? I'm kind of new to this stuff. I don't understand really anything about Java and i'm still kinda new to HTML. I've only had this class for about a month and we haven't learned a whole lot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don E Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Are you referring to the thumbnail preview for the videos/movies on youtube? Just to note: Java and JavaScript are not related. Java is a programming language like C++. JavaScript is a web development language(client side). There's a story why JavaScript has the word Java in it. JavaScript was called LiveScript at one point. So in high schools nowadays, they have classes for web design/development? Cool. I wish they had that in HS in the upper 90's! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
