    What is the url to the page?
    What version of Contribute are you using?
    What type of video file are you embedding (.mov, .flv, .wmv, etc.)?

    I'm using Contribute 3.11

    To answer your 3rd question, I don't know. Here's the code to embed from
    Youtube

    <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie"
    value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KNz-Duyx3Lc&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode"
    value="transparent"></param><embed
    src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KNz-Duyx3Lc&rel=1"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425"
    height="355"></embed></object>

    Thanks

    You will have to edit the source code.

    You can do that by going (in Contribute) to:

    1. File, Actions, Edit page in external application
    2. the external application will start and show you the source code
    3. enter the code in the place that you want the movie to appear
    4. save the page in the external application
    5. publish the page in Contribute

    If you ar the administrator you can also change the application to be used:
    1. go to Edit, Preferences and choos File Editors
    2. select Web Page Source
    3. add the aplication you like and make it default

    In Contribute CS3 you can add HTML-snippets, so you would be able to insert
    this code that way.

    Can you post the url to the page that has the source code to embed the youtube movie in it? This way I can see how and where you inserted the code.

    The source code of you page doesn't look like you edited the source code of the
    page like I suggested.

    The source code of your page inside the body tag looks like this:

    <p><object width='425' height='355'><param name='movie'
    value='http://www.youtube.com/v/KNz-Duyx3Lc&amp;rel=1'></param><param
    name='wmode' value='transparent'></param><embed
    src='http://www.youtube.com/v/KNz-Duyx3Lc&amp;rel=1'
    type='application/x-shockwave-flash' wmode='transparent' width='425'
    height='355'></embed></object></p>


    but should look like this:


    <p>&nbsp;</p>
    <object width="425" height="355"><param name="movie"
    value="http://www.youtube.com/v/KNz-Duyx3Lc&rel=1"></param><param name="wmode"
    value="transparent"></param><embed
    src="http://www.youtube.com/v/KNz-Duyx3Lc&rel=1"
    type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425"
    height="355"></embed></object>
    <p>&nbsp;</p>


    BUT!, there is good news too!
    At the bottom of the page, outside the body and html tags you inserted the
    right code. You will have to move this into the body tag, and then it will be
    visible! You are just one step away of getting it right.

    I attached the source code to. Maybe you can copy this into a notepad file and
    safe it as yourpreferredname.html and upload it like that to the server (File,
    Publish file from my computer) and then make a link to the page. Or use it as a
    reference to how the code should look.
