If you’ve embedded Youtube videos via Youtube’s embed codes and just so happen you have the XHTML Compliance OCD (like me), then you would want to know you should not do
<object width="300" height="247">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LnZQmom96jM">
</param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/LnZQmom96jM" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="300" height="247">
</embed></object>
But do
<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" style="width:300px; height:247px;" data="http://www.youtube.com/v/LnZQmom96jM">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/LnZQmom96jM" /></object>
instead. The embed tag has been depreciated, hence using it will cause, validation shame and your friends to still treat you the same even if your entry does not validate.
i dun understand a word you just said :P

Thanks – this helped me out enormously with another video hosting service.
And I thought I was the only one with XHTML Compliance OCD!
