    text
    copied!<p>I've embedded a video from YouTube via a snippet I've found on the Internet, here is the code that I've used:</p> <pre><code> @interface FirstViewController (Private) - (void)embedYouTube:(NSString *)urlString frame:(CGRect)frame; @end @implementation FirstViewController - (void)viewDidLoad { [super viewDidLoad]; [self embedYouTube:@"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l3Iwh5hqbyE" frame:CGRectMake(20, 20, 100, 100)]; } - (void)embedYouTube:(NSString *)urlString frame:(CGRect)frame { NSString *embedHTML = @"\ &lt;html&gt;&lt;head&gt;\ &lt;style type=\"text/css\"&gt;\ body {\ background-color: transparent;\ color: white;\ }\ &lt;/style&gt;\ &lt;/head&gt;&lt;body style=\"margin:0\"&gt;\ &lt;embed id=\"yt\" src=\"%@\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" \ width=\"%0.0f\" height=\"%0.0f\"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;\ &lt;/body&gt;&lt;/html&gt;"; NSString *html = [NSString stringWithFormat:embedHTML, urlString, frame.size.width, frame.size.height]; UIWebView *videoView = [[UIWebView alloc] initWithFrame:frame]; [videoView loadHTMLString:html baseURL:nil]; [self.view addSubview:videoView]; [videoView release]; } - (void)didReceiveMemoryWarning { // Releases the view if it doesn't have a superview. [super didReceiveMemoryWarning]; // Release any cached data, images, etc that aren't in use. } - (void)viewDidUnload { // Release any retained subviews of the main view. // e.g. self.myOutlet = nil; } - (void)dealloc { [super dealloc]; } @end </code></pre> <p>It compiles correctly and when I open it, I see a white box positioned incorrectly, which the code created. I have two questions regarding it:</p> <ol> <li><p>How do I know if the video will play, it is just a plain white box, does the simulator play videos from YouTube?</p></li> <li><p>How can I position this box?</p></li> </ol>
