Re: extract youtube video id from embed script
The following code makes a couple of assumptions about the URL / id which are probably safe, but not guaranteed (that the ID will always be before an ampersand, and never contain any slashes). cfsavecontent variable=Codeobject width=550 height=331param name=movie value=http://www.youtube.com/v/iNCsMTYkw1Mhl=enfs=1;/paramparam name=allowFullScreen value=true/paramparam name=allowscriptaccess value=always/paramembed src=http://www.youtube.com/v/iNCsMTYkw1Mhl=enfs=1; type=application/x-shockwave-flash allowscriptaccess=always allowfullscreen=true width=550 height=331/embed/object/cfsavecontent !--- INFO: Since CF doesn't have a HtmlParse we need to escape ampersands for XML: --- cfset Code = replace(Code,'','amp;','all')/ !--- INFO: Convert Code to XML nodeset and locate src of embed tag. --- cfset XmlData = XmlParse(Code) / cfset EmbedSrc = XmlSearch(XmlData,'//embed/@src') / cfset VideoUrl = EmbedSrc[1].XmlValue / !--- INFO: Locate Id by stripping away everything after the first and everything before the last / --- cfset VideoId = ListLast(ListFirst(VideoUrl,''),'/')/ ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?

Re: extract youtube video id from embed script
It looks like the HoF display code is broken. This line of code: cfset Code = replace(Code,'','','all')/ Should have ' a m p ;' (without spaces) as the third argument. ~| Want to reach the ColdFusion community with something they want?
