i have one of those myspaces that has almost nothing on it. so of course i have a lot of HTML and codes and stuff in it to hide everything. but i want to put a music video in it but it won't show up, there's probably some code in my myspace that's hiding it. and uh.. the song plays but it's just the video that won't show up.

here's my myspace - http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fusea...fe-c3ef7fe8acbc

am i supposed to paste all my codes here now?

Take all the following out of your codes:
CODE
<style>embed{
visibility:visible;
position:absolute;
top:0;
left:0;
width:1;
height:1;
}</style>


CODE
embed, object {display:block; width:220px; height:38px;}

alright! it still doesn't work though. the code for the video is this

<div><div><embed src="http://www.cmt.com/global/apps/broadband/xml/asx/asxgen.jhtml?id=53185" type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" showstatusbar="1" autostart="1" loop="false" playcount="1" width="320" height="305"></embed></div><div><div style="font:10px arial,sans-serif"><a href="http://www%2epcplanets%2ecom/artist-3426-Of-Montreal%2eshtml">Of Montreal Videos</a> | <a href="http://www%2epcplanets%2ecom">Music Video Codes</a> | <a href="http://www%2epcplanets%2ecom">Video Search Engine</a></div></div></div>

once i take the ads out of it, it looks like this

<div><div><embed src="http://www.cmt.com/global/apps/broadband/xml/asx/asxgen.jhtml?id=53185" type="application/x-mplayer2" pluginspage="http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/MediaPlayer/" showstatusbar="1" autostart="1" loop="false" playcount="1" width="320" height="305"></embed></div></div>

and i put that code in there, and took mine out.. there's a little something where the video is supposed to be now, but.. yeah.

Get rid of all the <div>'s and the </div>'s. There not doing anything. Go through your code again take out anything with teh word "embed" .

If it still doesn't work I guess you should post your code.

it almost worked, now i just need to fix the height and width. because only the player part is showing and not the video.

CODE
embed, object {display:block; width:220px; height:38px;}

YES! the video is showing now. thanks! and now you can go back and watch the video, it's fun :)

one more question though: when i make a link to somewhere (mylifeissoawkward.com), it doesn't work.

<a href="www.mylifeissoawkward.com">My life is so awkward!</a>

i'll put that in, and then when i go to my myspace and click on it, it says "this page cannot be displayed" and in the URL box i see "www.myspace.mylifeissoawkward.com" or something like that.
?
