 * so how do you embed video in a blog with Word Press?
 * why does this code not work on my blog?
    [http://francesdelrio.com/php/](http://francesdelrio.com/php/)(
   in FF it looks even worse than IE.. the whole thing still looks awful, don’t 
   need to find out how to edit files, I’m a web developer, I really don’t like 
   this CMS-editing stuff…;) but well…
 * either way, why does this code to embed video not work? (it works if I put it
   in a ‘normal’ html pg, both locally and on my website.. [http://francesdelrio.com/video.html](http://francesdelrio.com/video.html))
   why won’t it work on my blog??

 * ok, I will.. thank you very much.. even though I have been web developer for 
   about seven years now, I’m fairly new to blog-editing.. why doesn’t basic HTML
   code work? (like when I want to do a link, I can’t just type `<a>` etc.. I have
   to click somewhere, get to a dialog, type the url somewhere in another window,
   etc, it takes so much longer to do anything.. I still haven’t figured out how
   to edit files ‘manually’, i.e., edit the code itself.. there’s one spot where
   I can get to files, but when I click on main index template it says can’t edit
   file because it is locked..) how do you set permissions? I edit blogs at work
   using typepad, I edit all files manually and never have to set permissions… I’m
   excited at the idea of a blog, but editing it still takes me too long….:) thank
   you very much..
