    Youtube Pop up video on same frame

    With xara web designer it gives you a very easy option to have a thumbnail image pop up on the same frame. Very web2.0 ish.. But im looking to have the same effect where you click on the image it expands and runs a you tube video and a comment html script?.Im looking to keep my visitors on the website and not send them to external links.

    Example:
    this is what i want to do, Click on the image on the top left on the image with the blue play button on it.

    lloyall,
    Make a new layer. Make a placeholder on the new layer the size of the video. On the Placeholder Tab, put the embedded code in the Replace With Html Code area. Put a button on your page linking to the new layer. Here's one I just did this week, although the background doesn't darken: http://www.bluewatersportsmansassoci...com/cowboy.htm Click on the Juni Fisher Video in the lower right corner.

    WidgetBox has a nice video player that pops up and darkens the background. I used it here: http://lemars.net in the upper right.

    You might check it out.
