embedding iframe in trac wiki pages?

[nsriram]

A couple of questions

1. It appears that the <iframe> is not allowed in trac html.. Is
there any way to use the object tag as an XHTML compliant alternative
or is that also banned from trac wiki pages? Are embeds at all
possible?

2. I am using a trac install that is version 0.9.4 on linux. What is
the recommended method for upgrading to the current version?

Sure, <iframe> is not a valid XHTML tag.

Yes, see http://trac.edgewall.org/wiki/TracIni#wiki-section,
render_unsafe_content option.
I don't know how 0.9 works (too old), I used to patch Trac code before
this option was introduced.

Yes, but you'd better ensure untrusted used are not allowed page edition.

1. Uninstall Trac (all of Trac, including the htdocs and template
files, but obviously excluding your Trac projects)
2. Install 0.10.4 or 0.11pre
3. Run trac-admin upgrade and trac-admin wiki upgrade on each of your
Trac projects
