[web2py] Re: how to support video in an app

[Massimo Di Pierro]

Sorry my bad:

{{=XML(expand_one('
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yvt2Pt6LRA',cache.ram('mycache',lambda:dict(),3600))<http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7yvt2Pt6LRA')>
)}}

expand one converts to HTML but then is must be wrapped into XML else it 
gets escaped.
