YouTube and embedding html

OK..very new to Dreamweaver, but ok with the old go live..
 here's my question...I need to embed a youtube movie. easy enough, just place 
the code in the code area. However, I need it to be in a specific place and it 
needs to go partially over a portion of a graphic. I tried to take a flexible 
div and put it in the design mode then add the html in the code mode. All I got

was the code words on the page. Then I just tried putting the code in as close 
to where I thought it should be and I got a install missing plug-in..well that 
never happens when i watch other youtube on other sites..I am just lost and a 
little frustrated. Please help if you can.
 Thanks

You cannot paste code in Design View.

You must find the big open space on your page.  In Design View, try typing
"Paste Code Here" to give you some idea where the code insertion point
needs
to be. Then switch to Code View, Ctrl+F to find the words Paste Code Here,
and paste your YouTube player code in that division or table cell.  You
can't paste player on top of an image unless the image is a background
image.
