Hi guys,
I have another question that I’m hoping that you can help me with. I’m trying to use AllWebMenus to pull up an embedded YouTube video such as:
<iframe width="420" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/j07X-zHUpT8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
Where/how would I put in the code?
Thanks
Cary

Hello,
Directly into the HTML of the item I guess:
Remember to turn the item to “HTML – Full Mode” to ensure that the video is fully usable.

Hi Kostas,
What I need is that when you click on the menu option, say video 1, the video window spawns on top of the menu. Is that possible? What you are showing below is embedding the video in the menu. My bad on that one. I should have been a little more specific.
Thanks
Cary

Dear Cary,
If you want the window to appear in a separate floating window, then you need the Likno Web Modal Windows Builder application (or a similar modal window application).
This will allow you to create a modal window that holds the video, and you can use AllWebMenus to open this modal.

Hi Kostas,
Is that the only way to have a link to a video and have that video appear with a player on the same page as the menu? Hope I’m saying all that right.
Thanks.

Dear Cary,
Well, you are saying that you want to create a floating layer (modal window) that will hold the video.
I guess that you can either custom-program it, or you can get an application that does that. There are several applications and scripts out there that do this.
From our suite, the application that does this is Likno Web Modal Windows Builder. Of course this has to be purchased as a separate application.
All of these are irrelevant to the menu. AllWebMenus can call and open ANY solution you choose for the modal window. So if you can find a free script and put it in your page to open the video, you can still call this through AllWebMenus.
