    Hi Ken

    I did post this in your other thread. You need to display the youtube video in an iframe as all other embed methods have been deprecated unless you are using a third party player. To autoplay the video use this format:

    <iframe id="ytplayer" type="text/html" width="640" height="390"
  src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/VIDEO_ID?autoplay=1"
  frameborder="0"/>

    where you replace VIDEO_ID with the code for the video.

    Unfortunately you cannot play the video in full screen, although you may be able to increase the size of the player by enlarging the IFrame.

    Hope this helps
