youtube videos on our hoome page used to autoplay in Firefox; now nothing is there
Our home page has YouTube videos that are coded to autoplay. They used to do this in all browsers on Win and Mac platforms. Recently, Firefox on all platforms no longer autoplays the video. In fact, there is blankness where the video used to be. This came to our attention when visitors reported this to us, presumably on Win platforms. We tested on Win and Mac platforms using the current builds of Firefox and they were right. No more video. Can someone tell me what I need to do to get those videos back on Firefox?

Caused by as missing data attribute in the OBJECT that Firefox will use because it is valid code with type="application/futuresplash" that makes Firefox start the Flash plugin, but is missing the URL (player shows "movie not loaded").
Add the video source from the EMBED to the OBJECT and leave out the EMBED.
<object data="http://www.youtube.com/v/WDqau1FUe1A&autoplay=1?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0" type="application/futuresplash" height="300" width="480"> <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/WDqau1FUe1A&autoplay=1?fs=1&hl=en_US&rel=0"> <param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"> <param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"> </object>Læs dette svar i sammenhæng 👍 1
