I'd like to be able to display a gallery of youtube video thumbnails underneath a primary Youtube video "player" area. When a thumbnail is clicked, that video would play in the main player area without the user being taken to any other page. Is there a way I can accomplish this with existing modules and/or Views?

Thanks!

  • That sounds like it would work really well. Would it be possible for you to share an example of your Javascript code that does this for you? Thanks!
