• Hi, I’m trying to embed a video from Stage6.com into a post on my blog. The Stage6 website offers two different codes to use, a javascript one:

    <script type='text/javascript'>/*<![CDATA[*/var divx_stage={size:'large',s:'720x576',v:1273052};/*]]>*/</script><script type='text/javascript' src='http://includes.stage6.com/javascript/divx_stage.js'></script>

    and a normal one:

    <object codebase="http://go.divx.com/plugin/DivXBrowserPlugin.cab" height="576" width="720" classid="clsid:67DABFBF-D0AB-41fa-9C46-CC0F21721616"><param name="autoplay" value="false"><param name="src" value="http://video.stage6.com/1273052/.divx" /><param name="custommode" value="Stage6" /><param name="showpostplaybackad" value="false" /><embed type="video/divx" src="http://video.stage6.com/1273052/.divx" pluginspage="http://go.divx.com/plugin/download/" showpostplaybackad="false" custommode="Stage6" autoplay="false" height="576" width="720" /></object>

    Neither of these work. What can I do to make my blog recognise it properly? I would really appreciate the help.

    Thanks,

    Jon

  • Disable the wysiwyg editor and use the basic one.

    I don’t use the wysiwyg editor. Any other ideas?

    Its because for some reason, WP adds a BR tag after the opening OBJECT tag. It even does this within PHP variables.

    so you get

    <object codebase="http://" height="544" width="960" classid="clsid:67DABFBF-D0AB-41fa-9C46-CC0F21721616"><BR/><param name="autoplay" value="false">

    which breaks it.

    I haven’t tested with Stage6 but I got around WordPress re-writing OBJECT tags on other video by having the PHP code plugin installed and surrounding the OBJECT with a PHP echo

    make a new html page
    and put the code inside it

    then iframe this page in your blog

    this must work good
