[[!tag type/html]]
This plugin allows embedding content from external sites on
wiki pages.
Normally, the [[htmlscrubber]] does not allow the tags that are used for
embedding content from external sites, since <iframe>, <embed>, and
<object> tags can be used for various sorts of attacks. This plugin
allows such tags to be put on a page, if they look like they are safe.
In the examples below, the parts of the html that you can change are denoted
with "XXX"; everything else must appear exactly as shown to be accepted by the
plugin.
This plugin is deprecated. Rather than relying on these complex lists
of safe content, which constantly fall out of date, you're recommended to
configure the [[htmlscrubber]] to not scrub some pages, which only trusted
users can edit. Then you can embed anything from anywhere on those pages.
See [[tips/embedding_content]] for details and examples.
This plugin's lists of safe embedded content will not be maintained, and
the plugin will be removed in a future release.
google maps
Use html like this to embed a map:
<iframe width="XXX" height="XXX" frameborder="XXX" scrolling="XXXX" marginheight="XXXX" marginwidth="XXXX" src="http://maps.google.com/?XXX"></iframe>
(This method only allows embeddeding a simple map. To use the full
Google Maps API from ikiwiki, including
drawing points and GPS tracks on the map, try the [[contrib/googlemaps]]
plugin.)

<object width="XXX" height="XXX"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/XXX"></param><param name="wmode" value="transparent"></param>
