Hey everyone! I’m working on a personal project and I need to embed a YouTube video directly into my HTML page. I’ve been searching around but haven’t found a clear solution that works for me. Can someone please share the correct HTML code or point me to a good tutorial? I’m still learning web development so any step-by-step guidance would be really helpful. Thanks!
just grab the video url and swap YouTube with YouTube, then drop it in an iframe tag. works every time - way easier than messing with share buttons.
To embed a YouTube video, first locate the video you want. Below the video, click on the ‘Share’ button, then select ‘Embed’. This will provide you with an iframe code similar to <iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>. You can then copy this code and place it in your HTML file where you want the video to appear. Remember to replace ‘VIDEO_ID’ with the specific ID of the video you’re embedding, and ensure you’re using the embed link, not the standard YouTube URL. If you’re deploying online, make sure to serve your site over HTTPS to avoid any security issues in some browsers.
