Adding Google Calendar

  I would like to add a page to my wordpress.com blog with my google calendar. I am using the html code that google calendar generates to share/embed the calendar on a blog/website.
  On the write page page, I insert the code into the html source box and click update; my calendar appears in the box. After I click save and publish, the calendar disappears and doesn’t show up on the page that I’ve added to my blog.
  What am I doing wrong? Or will my wordpress.com blog not support the google calendar?

  Thanks.

  Styles and java script are stripped perhaps this is your problem.

  Actually it’s an iframe. For security reasons, iframes are stripped from all user input.

  Polite suggestion to provide a link or list the code you’re trying to add in. We’re not mind readers around here. :)

  Thanks for the input! Sorry for the oversight about the code. I don’t code at all and don’t know about forum manners. Will remember that next time.
  Any suggestions as to what else I can do to display my google calendar since wordpress.com doesn’t allow iframes?

  copy the html address that Google provides on the calendar site and just link to it on your sidebar.

  Providing a link to it is probably as close as we’re going to get.
