I am trying to embed a vimeo video into my web site. The video embeds just fine with the code generated from my vimeo account, but the CMS Builder WYSIWYG HTML editor keeps taking out some parts of the code. In doing so, I am not able to align the video to the right. I tried editing the General and Advanced options through the WYSIWYG editor, but I still get the same results.

Can someone tell me how to can do this using CMS Builder?

My original code is:

<object width="375" height="281" align="right"><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="movie" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12770276&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ff9933&amp;fullscreen=1" /><embed src="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12770276&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ff9933&amp;fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" width="375" height="281" align="right"></embed></object>

CMS Builder turns my code into this (I added the salign and transparent options in the advanced options section):

<object data="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12770276&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ff9933&amp;fullscreen=1" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" height="281" width="375" style="width: 375px; height: 281px;">
<param name="salign" value="r" />
<param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
<param name="src" value="http://vimeo.com/moogaloop.swf?clip_id=12770276&amp;server=vimeo.com&amp;show_title=0&amp;show_byline=0&amp;show_portrait=0&amp;color=ff9933&amp;fullscreen=1" />
<param name="align" value="right" />

Thanks for any assistance anyone can give me.

Hmmm. Not sure this is the best way to do it, but I made a table, inserted the embed code inside of it, and aligned the table to the right. It works, but......

I tried that and it didn't work for me.

Did you try pasting the code into the WYSIWYG editor in HTML mode or did you create a separate textbox to past in the code?

If you can let me know specifically what happened and what didn't work, that will help me track down the issue.

thanks!

I created my code in Golive, then copy/pasted that in HTML mode by clicking on the HTML tab in the editor.

I also tried copy/pasting direct into the HTML editor with no luck.

Can you let me know what browser you are using so I can try to recreate the exact steps?
