*UPDATE: ISSUE RESOLVED, SEE HOW FOR HELP* Issue imbedding Youtube Videos

**UPDATE: RESOLVED**

For anyone that is having a similar issue, try this workaround before attempting to have the Zoho techs fix it. I have been in communication with them for weeks about this and they can't seem to fix the issue. Thinking it may have just been my computer or my browser, I tried two different computers on two different networks, each running different versions of Windows, and tried it on Chrome, Firefox and IE; nothing worked. So, needless to say, it's an issue with Zoho somewhere.

But, here's the fix. As most of y'all have noticed, I am sure, when embedding any type of code into your site, you have two options: Embed HTML and Code Snippet. When you try to embed something that doesn't work with Embed HTML, it tells you to use Code Snippet; fair enough (even though I am not sure why they have separated the two, as no other web designer I have used does this).

Anyway, when trying to embed a YouTube video (or any other video that uses similar embed code), you aren't given the option of choosing Embed HTML or Code Snippet, therefore, if you have a video embed code that interferes with their system in any way, it will just freeze the script and force you to stop it. Below is an example YouTube embed:

<div style="position:relative;height:0;padding-bottom:56.25%"><iframe src=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/uqOtZU-I3N4?ecver=2" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" style="position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;left:0" allowfullscreen></iframe></div>

Notice anything interesting about that code that would cause potential problems when embedding anything other than a video, that, for example, might tell you to use Code Snippet?

I sure did. It took me a minute to realize it, but I noticed two things that seem to interfere with each other - <div> and <iframe>. Those two things, according to the Embed HTML and Code Snippet, should be embedded separately.

Hmmm... strange.... Still not sure why it's set up that way. But, oh well. Here's the fix: Completely remove the <div></div> section and just leave the <iframe></iframe>. If needing to center it, use <center></center> outside of the <iframe> code. Boom, issue resolved. Zoho, why so complicated????

<div style="position:relative;height:0;padding-bottom:56.25%"><iframe src=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/uqOtZU-I3N4?ecver=2" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" style="position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;left:0" allowfullscreen></iframe> </div>

<iframe src=" https://www.youtube.com/embed/uqOtZU-I3N4?ecver=2" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" style="position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;left:0" allowfullscreen></iframe>


At one point in time, within the past month, I could imbed YouTube videos without an issue. Now, when I try to imbed a video, it freezes the screen and I have to refresh the site. I cannot imbed any videos at this time. Any solutions?
