installing iframe plugin/widget

    Hi, I'm pretty new at this. I am trying to display video from a website on my blog. The video gives me a code which I can use to do this, but I'm not sure what to do. Here's the code:

    <iframe width='560' height='315' src='http://www.rts.ch/embed/JaRB' frameborder='0'></iframe>

    If I understand correctly, I need to install a iFrame plug in on my blog to view this, but I don't know how to do this, and my admin bar does not have a PLugIn menu option. I've been reading through the net for a while now looking for answers, and haven't figured anything out.

    Can you help?

    The blog I need help with is lepetitpont.wordpress.com.

    I'm sorry, but that embed code will not work because we remove JavaScript, Flash, iframe, form, and input tags for security reasons.

    There are no restrictions if you setup a self-hosted WordPress.org blog instead of a WordPress.com blog, but there are some added responsibilities. We have hosting recommendations at the following link if you are interested.

    Hi Kardotim, thanks for the super quick response. Is there no other way for me to display the video on my site?
