26,671 PointsVideo Library Site with rails
I want to make a video library site with rails but im not sure how to begin goin about it. I want to have a array of videos listed on a page that the user can sort. I think my main problem is that all the videos are hosted by a site called screencast and to display a single video on the site I have to embed the code from that site.
Any Ideas

26,671 PointsAnyone used the Sanitize gem - its going to save all the tags as a string - i think now i need to make an unstring method or look for one that will take the code out of the string to display it
s = "something" puts s something
May not have to use a method to unstring it but well see
