Youtube iframe not showing in UIWebView

Question

I have an iframe within the html string,

<iframe class='iframeClass' src="https://www.youtube.com/{some_ID}" frameborder=0 width=564 height=347 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 scrolling=no frameborder=0></iframe>

this works in a browser but not in my UIWebView(in the webview it is just blank where the iframe should be).

Any ideas?

Thanks.

I'm afraid your video URL is not valid. Write the following code into your viewDidLoad:

NSString *embedHTML = @"<iframe class='iframeClass' src=\"https://www.youtube.com/embed/rOPI5LDo7mg\" frameborder=0 width=564 height=347 marginwidth=0 marginheight=0 hspace=0 vspace=0 scrolling=no frameborder=0></iframe>";
[self.webview loadHTMLString:embedHTML baseURL:nil];
