I knew there was a reason for it but couldn't remember what, which is why I didn't make the change.

What to do then? Can the iframe builder function sniff out a local situation?

I seem to recall that the use of just //www rather than http://www or https://www was to deal with the security prompts when the xerte installation and LO link is viewed via https and includes non https links or embed content?

The problem is the src parameter in the iframe code created:



<iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/2nkAJogQioc?wmode=opaque" frameborder="0"></iframe>



I got this from the html returned by buildIFrame();



Note the two slashes. If you replace those with http:// it then works, so we need to change this line in buildIFrame():



html += " src=\"//www.youtube.com/embed/" + iframe.code;



to



html += " src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/" + iframe.code;



Yes?

Have been checking and testing further...



same embed code in a plain text page does work offline



youtube.html doesn't have any api code but didn't think it was needed for the single clip model?



That said I'm pretty sure the single clip YouTube page worked previously offline?



Tom - do I recall you were looking at a way to do this for export to work or was that just the YouTube feed page?

Does a simple html page with a youtube embed work (if we take xerte out of the picture)?



I expect it's to do with not having an API key - you should be able to put one in the exported model file, I think there is a line in there for a hardcoded one, sorry  I'm not at my desk atm, ________________________________________

Hi all

I've been asked recently why an LO exported for offline access works apart from the YouTube clips added to YouTube pages. I've just been testing and verfified that this doesn't work but I'm sure this used to work ok and didn't think that the single youtube page was affected by the YouTube feed page api issue. Is this due to yet another YouTube change? Or something else?

Cheers

Ron
