 * Hi I would like to do a replace on the_content to add a parameter to youtube 
   posts of wmode = transparent so it doesn’t confict with some drop down menus.
 * Obviously this doesn’t work because the_content echos the value, but this is 
   what I would like to accomplish.
 *     ```
       $content = the_content('Continue Reading »');
       $embedText = '<param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><embed wmode="transparent"';
       $content = str_replace('<embed ', $embedText, $content);
       echo $content;
       ```
   
 * Thanks for any help
