All you have to do is copy the variables into the new layout.

You don't need to print everything out. I wrote it to where it would echo the variables in the correct spots.

You should be able to use it they EXACT way I wrote it, unless the variables are not the same.

It is because you are escaping all of quotation marks. Unless it is inside a string that is being printed, they do not need to be escaped.

Yes that same code is being printed over and over for each separate video
thats what i was trying to figure out
the code works but when i try to change to layout it doesn i always get error and
i was wondering if anyone could help me do this?

[jeremywesselman]

You need to go through your code and delete all the \ before the ". That is why it is not working correctly. Unless the " is inside a set of "", you need to remove the \.
