[SOLVED] iframe being stripped out by TinyMCE

Hi

I am trying to add a Google maps link which uses an iframe in the html but it appears that the TinyMCE is removing it.

Any way round this?

Using version 1.5.2

Thanks, Steve

I had the same problem but I found a solution here in forum a couple of minutes ago literally :)

extended_valid_elements : "iframe[marginheight|id|frameborder|scrolling|align|marginwidth|name|id|src|height|width|]"

and see if the TInyMce will stop removing the iframe tag
That worked for me.

Thanks for that. In my case its stops the WYSIWYG editor working. Strange!

Reset Tiny back to defaults and the WYSIWYG is back!!!

Any more ideas anyone?

Thanks.

Probably the is stripping....

I normally put logic in GCB, where I UNCHECK the "allow wysiwyg in Global Settings"...

Insert the logic in the GCB, without a wysiwyg, and call the GCB in the page.

Thanks RonnyK. That worked, but still would have been good to have it work with TinyMCE.

Hi,

Having just read the posts above - I have added the settings to Extra Configuration and to get it to work removed any line breaks in what I pasted and it works sweet.

This has then enabled our clients to add Vimeo and YouTube videos to pages without TinyMCE stripping the iFrame.

Cheers,
Phil.
