How to Include Common Features

AMP HTML components make it simple for you to control your content. Learn how to include common features in your pages using these elements.

Make sure to review the documentation for each component individually as a reference:

Display an iframe

Display an iframe in your page using the amp-iframe element.

amp-iframe requirements:

  • Must be at least 600px or 75% of the first viewport away from the top.
  • Can only request resources via HTTPS, and they must not be in the same origin as the container, unless they do not specify allow-same-origin.

To include an amp-iframe in your page, first include the following script to the <head>, which loads the additional code for the extended component:

<script custom-element="amp-iframe" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-iframe-0.1.js" async></script>

An example amp-iframe from the released.amp example:

Media

Include images, video, and audio in your page using AMP media elements.

Include an image

Include an image in your page using the amp-img element.

amp-img requirements:

  • Must include an explicit width and height.
  • Recommended: include a placeholder in case image resource fails to load.

Responsive image example:

<amp-img src="responsive.jpg" width=527 height=193 layout="responsive" ></amp-img>

Fixed-size image example:

<amp-img id="img1" src="fixed.jpg" width=264 height=96></amp-img>

Hidden image example:

<amp-img id="img2" src="hidden.jpg" width=527 height=193 layout="nodisplay"></amp-img>

The AMP HTML runtime can affectively manage image resources, choosing to delay or prioritize resource loading based on the viewport position, system resources, connection bandwidth, or other factors.

If the resource requested by the amp-img component fails to load, the space will be blank. Set a placeholder background color or other visual using CSS selector and style on the element itself:

amp-img {
  background-color: grey;
}

Include an animated image

Include an animated image in your page using the amp-anim element.

The amp-anim element is very similar to the amp-img element, and provides additional functionality to manage loading and playing of animated images such as GIFs.

To include an amp-anim in your page, first include the following script to the <head>:

<script custom-element="amp-anim" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-anim-0.1.js" async></script>

The amp-anim component can also have an optional placeholder child to display while the src file is loading. The placeholder is specified via the placeholder attribute:

<amp-anim width=400 height=300 src=”my-gif.gif”>
  <amp-img placeholder width=400 height=300 src=”my-gif-screencap.jpg”>
  </amp-img>
</amp-anim>

Embed a Tweet

Embed a Twitter Tweet in your page using the amp-twitter element.

To include a tweet in your page, first include the following script to the <head>:

<script custom-element="amp-twitter" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-twitter-0.1.js" async></script>

Currently tweets are automatically proportionally scaled to fit the provided size, but this may yield less than ideal appearance. Manually tweak the provided width and height or use the media attribute to select the aspect ratio based on screen width.

Example amp-twitter from the twitter.amp example:

<amp-twitter width=390 height=50
    layout="responsive"
    data-tweetid="638793490521001985">
</amp-twitter>

Include a video

Include a video in your page using the amp-video element.

Only use this element for direct HTML5 video file embeds. The element loads the video resource specified by the src attribute lazily, at a time determined by the AMP HTML runtime.

Include a placeholder before the video starts, and a fallback, if the browser doesn't support HTML5 video, for example:

<amp-video width=400 height=300 src=”https://yourhost.com/videos/myvideo.mp4”>

  <amp-img placeholder width=400 height=300 src=”myvideo-poster.jpg”></amp-img>
  <div fallback>
	<p>Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 video</p>
  </div>
</amp-video>

Include a youtube video

Include a youtube video in your page using the amp-youtube element.

You must include the following script in the <head>:

<script custom-element="amp-youtube" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-youtube-0.1.js" async></script>

The Youtube video-id can be found in every Youtube video page URL. For example, in https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z1q71gFeRqM, Z1q71gFeRqM is the video id.

Use layout="responsive" to yield correct layouts for 16:9 aspect ration videos:

<amp-youtube
    video-id="mGENRKrdoGY"
    layout="responsive"
    width="480" height="270">
</amp-youtube>

Include an audio resource

Include an audio resource in your page, using the amp-audio element.

You must include the following script in the <head>:

<script custom-element="amp-audio" src="https://cdn.ampproject.org/v0/amp-audio-0.1.js" async></script>

Only use this element for direct HTML5 audio file embeds. Like all embedded external resources in an AMP page, the element loads the audio resource specified by the src attribute lazily, at a time determined by the AMP HTML runtime.

Include a placeholder before the audio starts, and a fallback, if the browser doesn't support HTML5 audio, for example:

For example:

<amp-audio width=400 height=300 src=”https://yourhost.com/audios/myaudio.mp3”>
  <div fallback>
    <p>Your browser doesn’t support HTML5 audio</p>
  </div>
  <source type="audio/mpeg" src="foo.mp3">
  <source type="audio/ogg" src="foo.ogg">
</amp-audio>

Count user page views

Count user page views using the amp-pixel element.

The amp-pixel element takes a simple URL to send a GET request to when the tracking pixel is loaded.

Use the special string $RANDOM to add a random number to the URL if required.

For example, <amp-pixel src=”https://cdn.ampproject.org/$RANDOM”> makes a request to something like https://cdn.ampproject.org/8390278471201, where the $RANDOM value is randomly generated upon each impression.

An example amp-pixel from the everything.amp example:

<amp-pixel src="https://pubads.g.doubleclick.net/activity;dc_iu=/12344/pixel;ord=$RANDOM?"></amp-pixel>

Monetization through ads

The following ad networks are supported in AMP HTML pages:

Display an ad

Display an ad in your page using the amp-ad element. Only ads served via HTTPS are supported.

No ad network provided JavaScript is allowed to run inside the AMP document. Instead the AMP runtime loads an iframe from a different origin (via iframe sandbox) and executes the ad network’s JS inside that iframe sandbox.

You must specify the ad width and height, and the ad network type. The type identifies the ad network's template. Different ad types require different data-* attributes.

<amp-ad width=300 height=250
    type="a9"
    data-aax_size="300x250"
    data-aax_pubname="test123"
    data-aax_src="302">
</amp-ad>

If supported by the ad network, include a placeholder to be shown if no ad is available:

<amp-ad width=300 height=250
    type="a9"
    data-aax_size="300x250"
    data-aax_pubname="test123"
    data-aax_src="302">
    <div placeholder>Have a great day!</div>
</amp-ad>
