Need Help Regarding A Random Video Widget For Blogger

[CrazySam]

Hi all! I'm looking for a script (or service) that can be added in the blogger HTML/Javascript widget. The script should be able to show random videos on my blog. I want to store the embed codes of many videos (from youtube, dailymotion etc.) in that script, and then as the user refreshes the page, a random video from that list is shown.

Thanks,
Sam.

Oh thank you thank you so much!!!! You're a genious!! This is exactly what I was looking for!!! YIPPEEE!!!!!!!!!

What should I do to make this script as
<script src="http://www.someserver.com/randomvideo.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Then I can upload this randomvideo.js to that server after adding newer videos without requiring to go to my blog admin.

Also is there any limit for the number of videos I can add? Will the page load slower if I add too many videos??

If I take you right, you can save the file as randomvideo.js and place it in the same folder to where your page resides.

There's no limit. And no, the page will not load slower since only one video will be shown every page's reload.

Hope that makes sense.

It is not working when I do like that. I made the randomvideo.js and hosted it on googlepages. Then from Blogger, I called
<script src="http://myid.googlepages.com/randomvideo.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

What am I doing wrong?

Put a link to the problem page, there are problems that aren't in the line of code you provided, and may be others, a link to the page will allow us to see it all for ourselves.
