Adding Transparent Word of the Day

  • Unknown's avatar

    I’ve tried adding the Transparent Word of the day by using the text widget and copy and pasting my code:

    <param name=”flashvars” value=”bgimgfill=repeat&lang=hindi&bgcolor=#bbbbbb&bgimgfile=texture/line-diag_1.gif&bordercolor=#afafaf&txtcolor=#364e6c&boxbgcolor=#364e6c&boxtxtcolor=#ffffff” /> <!–[if !IE]>–> <param name=”flashvars” value=”bgimgfill=repeat&lang=hindi&bgcolor=#bbbbbb&bgimgfile=texture/line-diag_1.gif&bordercolor=#afafaf&txtcolor=#364e6c&boxbgcolor=#364e6c&boxtxtcolor=#ffffff” /> <!–<![endif]–> <!–[if gte IE 6]>–>

    Either scripts and active content are not permitted to run or Adobe Flash Player version 10.0.0 or greater is not installed.

    <!–<![endif]–>

    <img src=”http://www.adobe.com/images/shared/download_buttons/get_flash_player.gif” alt=”Get Adobe Flash Player” /> <!–[if !IE]>–> </object> <!–<![endif]–> </object> <div style=”font:bold 9px/16px Verdana; margin:-4px 5px 0 5px; padding:0; height:16px;”><div style=”float:right; margin:0;”>Learn more</div>Get widget</div></div>

    However, this does not seem to work, so I’ve tried other words of the day, they do not appear to work as well.

    Am I doing something wrong?

    Also, I’ve tried to screen options>enable accessibility mode.

    Any solutions?

    It doesn’t work because embed codes aren’t allowed, for security reasons. You need to convert the main part of the code into a gigya shortcode. This is what you need to paste in the text widget:

    <div style="width:160px;height:206px;margin:0 auto;">
    [gigya src="http://www.transparent.com/wotd/small.swf" width="160" height="190" quality="high" allowscriptaccess="always" wmode="transparent" bgcolor="#bbbbbb" flashvars="bgimgfill=repeat&lang=hindi&bgcolor=#bbbbbb&bgimgfile=texture/line-diag_1.gif&bordercolor=#afafaf&txtcolor=#364e6c&boxbgcolor=#364e6c&boxtxtcolor=#ffffff" ]
    <div style="font:bold 9px/16px Verdana; margin:-4px 5px 0 5px; padding:0; height:16px;"><div style="float:right; margin:0;"><a href="http://www.transparent.com/learn-hindi/">Learn more</a></div><a href="http://www.transparent.com/wotd/today/hindi.html">Get widget</a></div></div>

    PS To display code correctly in these forms, you need to enclose it in backticks (see below reply field).
