From what I've read, this is how I should setup the YouTube API:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta content='text/html;charset=UTF-8' http-equiv='content-type' />
<title>Youtube Player</title>
<script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8">
function onYouTubePlayerReady(id) {
console.log("onYouTubePlayerReady() Fired!");
var player = $("#youtube_player").get(0);
}
var params = { allowScriptAccess: "always" };
var atts = { id: "youtube_player" };
swfobject.embedSWF("http://www.youtube.com/apiplayer?enablejsapi=1",
"youtube", "425", "356", "8", null, null, params, atts);
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="youtube"></div>
</body>
</html>
However, 'onYouTubePlayerReady()' doesn't fire at all, and if I manually get a reference to the player, a lot of methods are undefined; for example, cueVideoById() works, but playVideo() doesn't.
How can I fix this problem?
