Try disabling tinymce in global configuration and using no editor (tested, works), or maybe to find a tinymce plugin in backend extensions and configuring it to allow iframe or other code one might need (not tested, does it work?).

To enable iframe go to:

Extensions> Plug-in manager> Editor - TinyMCE> Basic options> Prohibited Elements

In Prohibited Elements delete the "iframe".

Change from "script,applet,iframe" to "script,applet"

I've checked both my Global configuration and TinyMCE configs to allow iframcs and I'm still not able to see the iframe. Any ideas as to whats causing this?

Thanks again. :laugh:
