I find this works for me. I've actually embedded it into the ActivateURL() by Joel Mueller, updated by Lucas Sherwood.
/* thisURL = {youtube url} */ <object width="425" height="350"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/' & listFirst(listrest(thisURL,"="),"&") & '"></param> <param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param> <embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/' & listFirst(listrest(thisURL,"="),"&") & '" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350"></embed> </object> You can't just put the browser URL in... the Flash Movie needs a slightly different URL, thus the string manipulation shown above.
