i checked your html code and it worked fine in TWebBrowser
try this sample code tested in Delphi 7 and Delphi 2007
uses
ActiveX;
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
begin
LoadHtml(
'<html> '+
'<head> '+
'</style> '+
' <style type="text/css">.recentcomments a{display:inline !important;padding:0 !important;margin:0 !important;}</style>'+
'</head> '+
'<body> '+
' <object width="640" height="390"> '+
' <param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/L7NWdxFAHdY&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3"> '+
' </param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"> '+
' </param><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"> '+
' </param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/L7NWdxFAHdY&hl=en_US&feature=player_embedded&version=3" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowScriptAccess="always" width="640" height="390"> '+
' </embed></object> '+
'</body> '+
'</html> '
);
end;
procedure TForm1.LoadHtml(HTMLStr: String);
var
aStream : TMemoryStream;
begin
WebBrowser1.Navigate('about:blank');//reset the webbrowser
while WebBrowser1.ReadyState < READYSTATE_INTERACTIVE do //wait to load the empty page
Application.ProcessMessages;
if Assigned(WebBrowser1.Document) then
begin
aStream := TMemoryStream.Create;
try
aStream.WriteBuffer(Pointer(HTMLStr)^, Length(HTMLStr));
aStream.Seek(0, soFromBeginning);
(WebBrowser1.Document as IPersistStreamInit).Load(TStreamAdapter.Create(aStream));
finally
aStream.Free;
end;
end;
end;

It definitely works. I tried this in my application (ClipMate) which is a clipboard application written in Delphi2007. It can display any HTML text clip using TWebBrowser. I copied your sample HTML, viewed it as HTML in ClipMate, and the surrogate trailer shot straight up. Here is your HTML rendering in TWebBrowser, in a Delphi application. This same code worked in D5, D7, D2007 and I confirm it works in D2009, D2010. See: http://www.thornsoft.com/images/support/YoutubeClipMate.png
