How can PHP be used to display a different randomly selected YouTube video with a specific number of views on a webpage?

To display a different randomly selected YouTube video with a specific number of views on a webpage using PHP, you can create an array of YouTube video IDs and their corresponding view counts. Then, you can use PHP to randomly select a video from the array that meets the specified view count criteria and embed it on the webpage. 

<?php
// Array of YouTube video IDs and view counts
$videos = array(
    array('id' => 'VIDEO_ID_1', 'views' => 10000),
    array('id' => 'VIDEO_ID_2', 'views' => 5000),
    array('id' => 'VIDEO_ID_3', 'views' => 20000),
);

// Function to filter videos based on view count
function filterVideos($video) {
    return $video['views'] >= 10000; // Change the view count criteria as needed
}

// Filter videos based on view count
$filteredVideos = array_filter($videos, 'filterVideos');

// Get a random video from the filtered list
$randomVideo = $filteredVideos[array_rand($filteredVideos)];

// Embed the selected video on the webpage
echo '<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/' . $randomVideo['id'] . '" frameborder="0" allow="autoplay; encrypted-media" allowfullscreen></iframe>';
?>
