 * guys pls. help me. my brain is bursting with this one.
    oembed of youtube returns
   empty, oembeds of dailymotion, vimeo and others works great. but for youtube 
   it returns empty.
 * and after i investigate further. even when you put simple codes (to eliminate
   more stuff), so the problem is youtube request is blocked?
 * $xml=simplexml_load_file(‘[http://www.dailymotion.com/services/oembed?format=xml&url=http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xoxulz_babysitter_animals&#8217](http://www.dailymotion.com/services/oembed?format=xml&url=http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xoxulz_babysitter_animals&#8217););
 * $xml2 = simplexml_load_file(“[http://www.youtube.com/oembed?url=http%3A//www.youtube.com/watch?v%3D-UUx10KOWIE&format=xml&#8221](http://www.youtube.com/oembed?url=http%3A//www.youtube.com/watch?v%3D-UUx10KOWIE&format=xml&#8221););
 * when you echo $xml2->html;
    it is empty.
 * the request gets blocked, or not sent tru youtube.
 * likewise with the json option.
 * please help me guys. pls. pls. im stressed by this for almost 48 hours. need
