replace youtube link with embed video

[AviNahum]

i trying to replace a simple youtube link with the embed video, for example:

this:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iabgQJLqTD4&playnext_from=TL&videos=0pS3nK3dxJs&feature=sub

will be replaced with:

<object width="640" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/iabgQJLqTD4&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/iabgQJLqTD4&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385"></embed></object>

 

 

so here is my code:

		$row['post'] = preg_replace(
						"#(.+?)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=[a-zA-Z0-9._-](.+?)#is",
						'<object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/\\1&hl=en_US&fs=1"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/\\1&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>',
						$row['post']
					);

 

it does not work...

i dont really good at regular expressions so i dont really know what i did there... i just played with that...

the most important thing is that the youtube link can be i a middle of a paragraph  like this:

some text here

some more text

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iabgQJLqTD4&playnext_from=TL&videos=0pS3nK3dxJs&feature=sub

some text here

some more text

 

any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

An easy way is first to split the string to give you the value of the video link then just add it to other section

 

[code=php:0]
<?php

// link of video
$link = 'http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iabgQJLqTD4&playnext_from=TL&videos=0pS3nK3dxJs&';


//remove beginning of string
$link = str_replace("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=", "", $link);


// split the string into sections from '&'
$video_value = explode("&", $link);

// value of video link is first array
$video_value = $video_value[0];


echo $video_value;

$new_video_url= '<object width="640" height="385">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$video_value.'&hl=en_US&fs=1">
</param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true">
</param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always">
</param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/'.$video_value.'&hl=en_US&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="640" height="385">
</embed></object>
';

?>

[/code]

 

Will be short way i`m sure but this one works
