Selectable links in column and embedded content shows in embedded frame.

[STEY]

I would like to make a simple website where I can select videos from an external website on one side (in a column).
and play the embedding content on the other side (like on the website freeintertv).
What is the best way to organise that ? By embedding ? Using iframes ? CSS ?

You can work on the layout, which would be use HTML and CSS. Use placeholders for now, as you would want to focus on how it will look first.

Once you have the layout done, you would work on functionality, using JavaScript. Typically you would use iframes to place external videos from a site. If you wanted to have search functionality like in the image, you would need to build a database (not necessarily for the videos but for the items that would contain the videos).

If you plan on using a site like YouTube, it would be easier to use its API as lot of that functionality would be provided by it.

Good luck!
