How to Insert Iframe Code in Joomla Module

Sometimes when you wanna use Iframe code (HTML) in joomla module. Joomla always removes your code which you just inserted. For example, this code...

<IFRAME src="http://financialtools.stockgroup.com/charts/SGChartDB.asp" 
frameBorder=0 width=200 scrolling=no height=227></IFRAME>

This code should show this:

But in Joomla! if you insert the iframe code directly: (see the picture below)

When you click update button. What happen!! The code's suddenly removed!!! Nothing appear in Editor Space.

Don't worry, That is not a problem. Joomla WYSIWYG Editor always remove some HTML code for security. (For more details read here - Joomla Filtering Options)
