I’m trying to add YouTube videos to my website using iframes through JavaScript and jQuery. The issue I’m facing is that the YouTube video player appears above my modal dialogs and dropdowns. It seems like the embed code from YouTube doesn’t automatically set wmode to “opaque,” which may cause it to have a higher z-index than other elements on the page.
Here’s the code snippet I’m using for the iframe:
function insertYouTube(videoId) {
var iframeCode = '<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/' + videoId + '" width="560" height="315"></iframe>';
$('#video-wrapper').html(iframeCode);
}
When I activate a modal after the video loads, the YouTube player remains on top of the modal, disrupting the view. How can I resolve this issue? Is there a method to configure the video to follow the z-index hierarchy of my other elements?
