[YouTube-API] Re: Uploading from browser

Hi Jeff,

I'm running it on a local machine. I've provided as much info as I can
below.

I think I'm getting the upload url and token correctly. An example of
the url is this 195 character string: "http://
uploads.gdata.youtube.com/action/FormDataUpload/AIwbFARGE0HraU7Y86GwMS-
b4geNbunf67cIDSyc32FRBDoHxVPh4fhTiTj943g3WUmzzj5HkkZTu_k3KUB-0XLuoL9s9wA0JhXPkBOT55EnpwFEAS5FFk-
QmX5uUHy5Gh_8N0D2uETu". An example of a token I get is this 418
character string:
"AIwbFAQLpHCp0W1f0n9W2BntBOtSLcH4IPj_EV9A0zwu4p1fKoRsz57QMUekGfVmAdwKfL7sACP2OYTiTK5HWKdV77-

I give these two parameters to this function:

function submitVideo(url, token) {
var form = '<form action=\''+url+'?nexturl=google.com\' method=POST
\
enctype="multipart/form-data" onsubmit="return true;"> \
<input id="file" type="file" name="file"/> \
<div id="errMsg" style="display:none;color:red"> </div> \
<input type="hidden" name="token" value=\"'+token+'\"/> \
<input type="submit" value="go" /> \
</form>';
$.prompt(form, {
buttons: {}
});
}

The $.prompt is from a jQuery extension for easy form submission from
a pop up: http://trentrichardson.com/Impromptu/

Thanks!
Bo
