Really it needs one of our admins to change the code that the youtube tag generates so that it produces the iframe code rather than the object code.

The object code looks like:
<object width="425" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/...

The iframe code looks like:
<iframe width="425" height="350" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/...

Here's YouTube's guidlines for developers on this topic

It's all to do with the phasing out of Flash. :blame: Adobe

Testing that the iframe code really does still work...

Why are they phasing out Flash and why is it Abode's fault? I know they're the ones who maintain and develop new versions of Flash, but that's the extent of my knowledge.
