Your script doesn't work at myspace. Well - it doesn't work for me anyway...

I have found that this script works correctly with MySpace pages, as long as an extension such as NoScript is not interfering with it. However, if you could post any links to pages on MySpace with which this script does not work, I would appreciate it.

Thanks.

Let people know what settings are needed with noscript, adblock plus, (etc?) to use to allow your script to work correctly.

I turned off flashblock and had to spend about 3 minutes clicking around myspace until I finally found a page with a youtube video:
http://www.myspace.com/blaqkaudio

Strangely - your script worked fine on the video that was posted.

YouTube - Blaqk Audio - If Only

So it seems that the problem - with my firefox - isn't a noscript problem - it's a flashblock problem.

I turned flashblock back on - reloaded the page - and after I clicked the flashblock "start" button for the video - there was no link under it.

I have to keep flashblock enabled at sites like myspace since the site is horrible without it - autostart is hideous.

Thank you for posting this information. I tried using this script with Flashblock installed. And I also found that when Flashblock blocks these videos, the script will not work. As is the case with NoScript, some page content may need to be allowed or whitelisted in order for the script to add links to these embedded videos. However, I may, at a later time, make this script work properly with embedded videos when they are blocked by Flashblock.
