TubePlayer is a jQuery Plugin that implements YouTube Player API, and allows us to create our own controls and components for YouTube videos. The TubePlayer Website provides tips on getting started with it.
However, this is not working for me. This page on its site demonstrates a quick start guide. I followed exactly what it specified but does not work.
The video plays fine, but somehow the links to control the video do not work.
Is there anything wrong with the code. If you wanna try it out, here's the code :
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.2/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/swfobject/2.2/swfobject.js"></script>
<script src="http://www.tikku.com/scripts/ui/tubeplayer/jQuery.tubeplayer.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(function(){
jQuery("#youtube-player-container").tubeplayer({
width: 600, // the width of the player
height: 450, // the height of the player
allowFullScreen: "true", // true by default, allow user to go full screen
initialVideo: "ylLzyHk54Z0", // the video that is loaded into the player
preferredQuality: "default",// preferred quality: default, small, medium, large, hd720
onPlay: function(id){}, // after the play method is called
onPause: function(){}, // after the pause method is called
onStop: function(){}, // after the player is stopped
onSeek: function(time){}, // after the video has been seeked to a defined point
onMute: function(){}, // after the player is muted
onUnMute: function(){} // after the player is unmuted
});
}) ;
</script>
</head>
<body>
<a href="#" onClick='jQuery("#youtube-player-container").tubeplayer("play")'>
Play
</a>
<a href="#" onClick='jQuery("#youtube-player-container").tubeplayer("pause")'>
Pause
</a>
<a href="#" onClick='jQuery("#youtube-player-container").tubeplayer("stop")'>
Stop
</a>
<a href="#" onClick='jQuery("#youtube-player-container").tubeplayer("mute")'>
Mute
</a>
<a href="#" onClick='jQuery("#youtube-player-container").tubeplayer("unmute")'>
Unmute
</a>
<div id='youtube-player-container'> </div>
</body>
</html>
Can anyone help me out please. Thanks.

Sorry for the above question, my bad. I found out the problem, just noticed that in the API docs page. As stated in the documentation, we need to be on a web server with the test script. No idea, how i missed that section. Need to concentrate more often while reading in the future.
I quote the very documentation page:
" Any HTML page that contains the YouTube player must implement a JavaScript function named onYouTubePlayerReady. The API will call this function when the player is fully loaded and the API is ready to receive calls.
Note: To test any of these calls, you must have your file running on a webserver, as the Flash player restricts calls between local files and the internet. "
The above code works fine. Thanks.
