AM,<br><br>Click on "Disable rich text" before adding embed code. Then save. If you don't see "Disable rich text" you might have to turn that on in the TinyMCE settings.<br><br>Note: if you have "rich text" set as the default and you go into edit that node later, after you have gotten it to work, it's possible that simply editing the node again and saving it -- even if you didn't touch the embed code-- will mess up the embed code. If you are going to have a lot of videos you should have rich text disabled by default and turn it on for nodes that won't have the embeded code. Note also, it is possible that you could configure TinyMCE to play more nicely with this, but there are so many moving parts and settings going on with it and my own success so poor with rich text editors, that I couldn't begin to advise you on how to make them get along.<br>
<br>If you were using the Embedded Media Field Module (<a href="http://drupal.org/project/emfield">http://drupal.org/project/emfield</a>) then there will be no interaction between TinyMCE and your embed code and so you would avoid this whole problem. You need to install CCK of course to get the Embedded Media Field module to work.<br>

Hi, I have a Drupal 6.1 web site; mainly a blog, that recently went live with the help of a developer. I'm still learning my way around it. (I'm much more familiar w/WordPress.)<br>
<br>
How do I embed a video in a story? I tried ... made sure input method was set to Full HTML ... but when I paste in my embed code, it doesn't work.<br>
<br>
-- If I paste it into the HTML (source) window, when I click Update, the code disappears from the edit story window. (If I open the HTML window again, the code is gone).<br>
<br>
-- I paste it directly into the TinyMCE window, it appears as text in the published story<br>
<br>
Do I need a module? Does it make a diff. that I'm not using CCK/Views, but using Taxonomy (site was originally developed for v4).<br>
<br>
Everything else works great on the site.<br>
<br>
Here's the embed code if it makes a diff:<br>
<object width="425" height="256"><param name="movie" value="<a href="http://images.tv.adobe.com//swf/player.swf" target="_blank">http://images.tv.adobe.com//swf/player.swf</a>"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><param name="FlashVars" value="fileID=2204&context=146&embeded=true&environment=production"></param><embed src="<a href="http://images.tv.adobe.com//swf/player.swf" target="_blank">http://images.tv.adobe.com//swf/player.swf</a>" flashvars="fileID=2204&context=146&embeded=true&environment=production" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="256"></embed></object><br>
<br>
thanks!<br>
