   my site is not loading it.

 * Embed Code: <iframe src=”[http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/HhdC98RSsnGt](http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/HhdC98RSsnGt)
   <[http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/HhdC98RSsnGt&gt](http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/HhdC98RSsnGt&gt);”

 * The code you posted above is in an invalid format. Not sure if that went wrong
   when you pasted it here or if that’s what you actually posted on your site.
 * This would be the correct code:
 *     ```
       <iframe src="http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/HhdC98RSsnGt" width="480" height="270" frameBorder="0" seamless="seamless" allowFullScreen></iframe>
       ```

 * Thanks for getting back to me so quickly. I copy and pasted the code from what
   the person gave me. So, is there something I need to tell them about the code
   they sent because they sent another one that is also not working: <iframe src
   =”[http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/IqZU2Wv3US0Y](http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/IqZU2Wv3US0Y)
   <[http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/IqZU2Wv3US0Y&gt](http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/IqZU2Wv3US0Y&gt);”
   width=”480″ height=”270″ frameBorder=”0″ seamless=”seamless” allowFullScreen>
   </iframe>
 * Also, I copied the code you gave me and tried to insert it into the URL and still
   nothing comes up?? Am I doing something wrong?
 * I’m trying to get this up today, so thanks so much for your quick reply!!

 * 1. In both cases the code you posted is malformed. I would tell the person, “
   The iframe tags you are sending are malformed, inside the opening iframe tag 
   there is another tag inside the src attribute. Would you please check this with
   your technical team?”
 * The correct versions are:
    The first (as posted by SEnff) `<iframe src="http://
   player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/select/HhdC98RSsnGt" width="480"
   height="270" frameBorder="0" seamless="seamless" allowFullScreen></iframe>`
 * The second
    `<iframe src="http://player.theplatform.com/p/OyMl-B/yFnlSPbuWfdm/
   select/IqZU2Wv3US0Y" width="480" height="270" frameBorder="0" seamless="seamless"
   allowFullScreen></iframe>`
 * 2. To add this code to your page, you need to be in Text mode (not Visual mode).
   See controls highlighted on [http://i.imgur.com/20Hflp1.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/20Hflp1.jpg)
   
   Then paste the iframe code directly on the page (refer to image)

 * Hi hawraar,
 * The code from your second post is working for me (your first has an extra line
   break after “height:”).
 * To add this code to your page, you need to be in Text mode (not Visual mode).
   See controls highlighted on [http://i.imgur.com/20Hflp1.jpg](http://i.imgur.com/20Hflp1.jpg)
   
   Then paste the iframe code directly on the page (refer to image)
 * In the future, please create a new support ticket rather than replying to an 
   existing one. It will help others reply to it more quickly.
 * I hope this helps.
