When I use valid code to embed youtube videos I get a lego in my iPhone. When I use the embed code. I get a picture of the video with the ability to click it and launch it in the youtube player.

Any suggestions or thoughts on this one?

It allows Youtube

No. Safari in the iPhone does not allow strict flash. But there is significant and good youtube support. I watch videos on my iPhone on a daily basis.

When I use code that is valid XHTML. Then there is a blank box with the lego block.

When I use the embed code. The video is there with the first frame like you would see on youtube. You click it and it takes the video into the youtube player . . . which it will not do using valid HTML.
