I'm somewhat new to DNN and am still building my site. I want to embed a video in the site and the video is hosted by Google Docs. (It's basically the same thing as a YouTube video.)

As per instructions, I've created a new HTML module and put it on the page. I've clicked on 'Edit Content' and opened up the editor for the module, clicked on HTML, and pasted the code appropriately. Here's the code for a test video:

<iframe frameborder="0" style="border:1px solid #AAA; width:640px; height:387px;" src="http://video.google.com/a/ife/1f2e9e3018e7e319"></iframe>

At this point, I can click 'Design' at the bottom of the editor and actually see the first frame of my video in the editor. In fact, I can even use the controls to play the video, at this point. So, I then click on the 'save' button and the module is empty! Nothing. To add insult to injury, I open the editor back up and all of the code I pasted - and supposedly saved - is no longer there!

Incidentally, I've tried the same thing with a YouTube video and got exactly the same results - so it's got nothing to do with the source.

In Host Settings it tells me I'm running version 06.01.00 (1171).

What the heck am I doing wrong here?

I believe that an upgrade to DNN 6.01.01 will fix this known issue with the HTML module removing IFrame elements and scripts. The following blog entry has more information:
