Inserting code into a page just shows raw HTML

Question

I'm trying to insert a youtube playlist into a page using the following code

<iframe width="853" heigh![t="480" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/videoseries?list=<ID-REMOVED>&amp;hl=en_US" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe][1]>

for some reason, even when the ID is there, it comes out like this

Sorry about the text, it's by the client. Never really worked with wordpress before. I don't see a place to insert code or anything. Wat do?

Answer 1

I think this answers your question, the WordPress automatic paragraph input is messing up the raw html

Answer 2

If you are trying to embed a youTube video you can just paste the link directly in the editor. For example, pasting http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ in the editor will automatically embed the video on the page.

Here is more info on embeds.

Answer 3

You are placing the HTML as visual whereas you should input under the Text field
