YouTube Video Original Page - GreaseMonkey UserScript

YouTube Video Original Page UserScript will insert a link to the original page of a YouTube video from a page which has an embedded YouTube Video.

There are many pages where you will find a embedded youtube video. When you find such a page, you may want to find the original youtube page as well. You may want to add a comment. Or you may what to download the video. Whatever you reason might be, this userscript will do the job for you.

This userscript will add a link called 'YouTube Page' just below the video. This link should take you to the original youtube page for that video.

I have arranged a small demo page that has many youtube videos embedded in it. Just install the script and go to that page to see what I am talking about.

Nice one! There also seem to be embedded videos that use the parameter "src" instead of movie, so I changed one line in your code to:
if((param.getAttribute("name") == "movie") || (param.getAttribute("name") == "src")) {

Thanks for the script!
