Popup video

JavaScript
1

I am looking for JS that I can’t find here you have perhaps a jpg screen shot that looks like a video but when clicked it open the video in a popup window with an “X” in the right corner to close it.

Any help would certainly be appreciated.

Thank you.

Hi,

In addition to what John says, you might want to look at a library like Colorbox. To see Colorbox in action, visit this page, then click on the “Flash / Video (Iframe/Direct Link To YouTube)” link.

If your video isn’t hosted on YouTube or Vimeo, it wouldn’t be hard to modify the script to point to a resource on your own server.

Also, Colorbox has various skins you can use. Here’s a slightly different one.
