Can't embed YouTube (or others) to my blog

Post by shovals »

I want to insert a new entry to my blog, consisting an embeded object.
When previewing, I can see the text instead of the object.
Is there a different way to do this, maybe to use a plug-in?
Please help.

For example:
<object width="425" height="344"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/hrXQbucZUDA&hl ... ram><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/hrXQbucZUDA&hl=en&fs=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" width="425" height="344"></embed></object>

Be sure to a)If using the WYSIWYG editor, paste the text into your entry using HTML mode (button that looks like <>), and b) disable the NL2BR markup plugin for those entries.
