 * Not sure if this is the right way to handle it but…
 * I have a shortcode for embedding videos that take a variable which identifies
   the video:
 *     ```
       /** Add shortcode for videos in course*/
       function pq_course_videos_func($atts) {
       extract( shortcode_atts( array(
       		'vid' => 'something',
       	), $atts ) );
       echo '<div class="pq-video-player"><script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.videohost.com/embed.php?v=' . $vid . '&statTrack=&w=570&h=321"></script></div>';
       }
       add_shortcode('pq_course_videos', 'pq_course_videos_func');
       ```
   
 * When, for some reason, the video is unavailable the entire page beyond the video
   won’t load until the video host’s server times out.
 * It there a way to enqueue the script within the shortcode so that it doesn’t 
   try to load until the footer of the page? Or is there another solution?
