Navigating between several Google Videos on a single page

[lewcio]

I have a question about using embedded Google Videos on my site. Does
anyone have tips for allowing user to switch between videos (5) on the
same page? The caveat is that only one would be showing at a time. I
imagine it would require javascript coding. If so, would you have any
examples?

I would do something with changing the inner HTML of a div, as such:
<div id="video"</div>

//in the calling function to change to a specific video:
document.getElementById("video").innerHtml = "whatever HTML it takes to
embed a google video";

That calling function could be called from a button, a link, or
anything.

^^^^^^^^^

In case-sensitive javascript, writing to the Microsoft originating,
proprietary - innerHTML - properties of elements will be more effective
if the correct case is use in the property name.

(It may also be a good idea to read what the FAQ has to say on
formatting code for use in newsgroup posts <URL:

This is great - just what I've been looking for.

Thanks!
