Hello,

I am planning to build an app using jQuery mobile. The idea of my app is to fetch some videos from youtube channel using data feed (gdata) and i want to customize the list of these videos. Could you please let me know which language script should i use and if you have tips to help me i will be very thankful to you!

Hi Husam,

I've never used the YouTube API but my choice would be to use their JSON version:

https://developers.google.com/youtube/2.0/developers_guide_json

I'd pull the data from the API using JavaScript and jQuery's $.getJSON() method, unless you're planning to have your app's functionality on your server, in which case you could use something like PHP to pull the data, customize it, then send the result to the browser. It all depends how you're structuring your app really.
