Webado,
First let me wish you a wonderful holiday with all the trimmings, and
a big thank you for all your help this past few months. Hope that
2008 is a great year for you.

Now to my latest problem. I have added a You Tube video to my site,
but I can't get it to validate. I was able to correct a few "&"s but
the other errors are over my head. Would you be good enough t look at
< www.toiletology.com/anatomy-validate.shtml >?

Here is the You Tube code before I corrected the "&"s ...:

<object width="425" height="373"><param name="movie" value="http://
www.youtube.com/v/wrg_6dny6Po&rel=1&border=1"></param><param
name="wmode" value="transparent"></param><embed src="http://
www.youtube.com/v/wrg_6dny6Po&rel=1&border=1" type="application/x-
shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="373"></
embed></object>

Thanks - the same good wishes for you for the holidays.

For the flash, the embed tag is the main culprit. Remove all from
<embed> to </embed>

See my tutorial on two methods how to embed flash so it's valid.
http://www.webado.net/tutorials-embedding-flash.php

The first one, the Satay Flash, is almost like what you are using but
without <embed>, instead it has some more parameters.

Here is the code (careful, the group format breaks lines in wrong
places):

<object width="425" height="373"
data="http://www.youtube.com/v/wrg_6dny6Po&amp;rel=1&amp;border=1"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash"
title="Title of this flash movie">
<param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/
wrg_6dny6Po&amp;rel=1&amp;border=1">
<param name="width" value="425">
<param name="height" value="373">
<param name="menu" value="false">
<param name="quality" value="autohigh">
<!-- remove the wmode if transparency is not needed -->
<param name="wmode" value="transparent">
