The simplest way to play videos in HTML, is by using YouTube as a source. First, you should upload the video to YouTube or copy the embed code of an existing video, which will be inserted in a element in your web page. To have the embed link of the YouTube video follow these simple steps: -Open the video on YouTube and click the share button. -Open the Embed code. -Copy the Source link. As you copy the embed link you can insert it into your HTML document as the src of your element. Also define width and height for your video. Now let’s see how it will look like.

YouTube gives you the full tag you need to copy.

Go to the video that you want to embed, click Share, click the Embed option, and then copy/paste the iframe code it gives you.

If you are using latest html5 version then you should use this code. HTML5 can come up with some new tag Video tag are one of them.

<html>
    <body>
       <video width=auto height=auto controls>
         <source src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/W7qWa52k-nE" type="video/mp4">
