Question

I have a Vimeo embeded video using their code(iframe) on my site.

    <iframe id="movie" src="" width="979" height="416" frameborder="0" webkitAllowFullScreen mozallowfullscreen allowFullScreen></iframe>

Now what I want to do is change the src through jquery like this:

on load:

$(document).ready(function() {
   jQuery('#movie').attr('src', 'http://player.vimeo.com/video/33971928?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&autoplay=1;');
});

the video shows up fine but it doesn’t autoplay. If i put that line inside the iframe source without jquery it works and autoplays. Is there something I’m missing here?

Try not using HTML entities in your URL:

http://player.vimeo.com/video/33971928?title=0&byline=0&portrait=0&autoplay=1;
