can someone help me with an html code snipet to display yt lists ?

[vhelp]

having trouble writing the html code correctly. what is the correct html code to use to display the video lists like the ones you see on youtube, on the right side window ?

i would like to display my own the same way if possible, i have the following info:

video icon size .jpg
video title
video url link (ie videoid)

i will follow it up with the time code/length and views later, thank you in advance.

I am no great coder (I usually 'borrow' and adapt)

I would have thought you need to link to a database and then write code to link to that. But if you want to do this in java then I can not help. I write plain html/php with a link to a mysql data file.

My approach would be to collect this data as fields from the data-file and each field is then displayed in a standard html table. Very 'old-school' but I am old

With this method, if the data is static, ie you will not be adding more videos or are prepared to manually update as and when, you can simply create the html table without a database and just hard-code the data elements.

i did (tried) the same thing..borrow. but in yt's case they seem to be in frame or other member that the usual "view source" will not show those link. so i can't copy it. i tried surfing around to other sities to see how they do it but the same thing. when i do create a few tests they come out large and ugly. i'm looking to make them like yt or smaller even.

oh, this is for an app i'm developing that incorporates an webbroswer, a wrapper to IE browser that i am considering as an alternate view from my textual database view. i am not trying to make a webpage to post at a website. this will be on my computer in my app.

i am using the coffeecup free HTML editor to test the html code. maybe there is something better? i dont' know. thank you.

i will be doing this dynamically in my delphi code...as soon as i create the template code for it

The only Delphi I know is in India

What I would suggest tho is to post the code you are having trouble with and maybe, just maybe, someone will be able to debug it.

I am sure you know that languages like php are 'invisible' as far as html source is concerned. So even if you checked my own web site's source you would not see the underlying php.

ok, i figured out how to do it, finally!

[vhelp]

here is the finished version. still needs some touch-up work, but i got it working at least

[vhelp]

does anybody know what yt uses to remove the black borders in their listings ?

my home-made listing (above) looks awful with them showing.

[DB83]

I do not think they do.

Looking at a sample listing, the image is more 16:9 than your 4:3. The sample showed one 4:3 video and that had the usual side borders.

[vhelp]

it seems that YT is using an external script or css elsewhere in the code. its hard for me to pinpoint that since i am below amature in web page jargon.
