YouTube DHTML Modal Video

I have set up a quite visually stunning display of YouTube DHTML Videos embedded into DHTML layers.

The modal (lightbox) effect is used and each layer fades in when the video link is clicked on. The videos could be any format using any player, but I wanted to show how easy it is just to take the embed code from YouTube and paste it into ADP Pro.

In this case and in all cases with videos I embed into dhtml layers script is used to do it properly so that the unwanted IE notice "Click to activate this control" does not appear.

The modal mask covering the page can be initiated automatically in the page or by the links as shown, and is hidden by closing the popup containing the video (or whatever content).

The videos can be positioned in any way desired, such as centered and scrolling with the page, or attached to a corner etc.

    Video & Google indexing

    I'm having problems with google indexing a site. I have a message in analytics saying "unreachable url's saying that one possibility is that there could be "rich video" within the page content, I don't get it!
