  Did Youtube change something????

  I was able to embed a video (left or right) — no problem .. now the coding is not working….

  This is the code I was using:
  <iframe style=”margin-left: 10px; margin-bottom: 10px; margin-top: 10px; float: right; width: 220px; height: 165px; border: none;” src=”http://www.youtube.com/embed/gTo_tqWsar0?rel=0″></iframe>

  I am editor of an online open and free journal on images and culture and we need to embed the videos in the text …. we want to challenge the text based pubs out there… http://vjic.org

  thanks for any support

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  You can’t use iframes on wordpress.com: the youtube iframe will be converted to the appropriate shortcode upon saving, so the style is lost.
  You need to enclose the shortcode in a div – see this post of mine:

  Shortcode objects and changing their default positioning (pt. 1)

  But if you’re asking about http://vjic.org, you’re in the wrong forum.
