    Hello,
    I'm trying to insert this code into one of my pages on my WordPress:

    <object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,47,0" width="30" height="30" id="wimpybutton661">
    <param name="movie" value="http://betchslap.com/media/ringtones/wimpy_button.swf" />
    <param name="loop" value="false" />
    <param name="menu" value="false" />
    <param name="quality" value="high" />
    <param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF" />
    <param name="wmode" value="transparent" />
    <param name="flashvars" value="theFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ebetchslap%2Ecom%2Fmedia%2Fringtones%2F%24300shoes%2Emp3" />
    <embed src="http://betchslap.com/media/ringtones/wimpy_button.swf" flashvars="theFile=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Ebetchslap%2Ecom%2Fmedia%2Fringtones%2F%24300shoes%2Emp3" width="30" height="30" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" loop="false" menu="false" quality="high" name="wimpybutton661" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" wmode="transparent" /></object>

    I entered it in the HTML area on the Write page, and it came out like this: http://www.betchslap.com/?page_id=28

    What can I do to make it work properly?

    Don't use the rich visual editor...

    I tried not using it, still looks that way.

    Run your site through the validator, fix the validation errors (44 listed), and you'll likely have solved your layout issue.

    For instance, you have the <html> tag in the middle of your page, unclosed <img> tags, missing <li>, object IDs repeated, no alt attributes for the img tag, etc...

    How do I run it through the validator? Oh, and my layout doesnt always look like that. Only on that page.

    http://validator.w3.org/ instructions are pretty clear there. it'll list errors, and explanations of said errors.

    chances are the stuff you are inserting on that page is what is breaking validation in some way.
