  Hello,
  I would like to create a widget in the sidebar of my blog with the following code but it doesn’t work (I tried to open a html/text widget):
  <iframe src=”http://www.golden-blog-awards.fr/votePlugin.php?blogId=8291″ width=”257″ height=”100″ scrolling=”no” frameborder=”0″></iframe>
  How should I correct the code so that it will work (instead of disappearing when I try to save it)?
  My blog is http://thesongoftheweek.wordpress.com/
  Thanks a lot,
  Noa

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  We cannot use iframes on free hosted WordPress.com blogs for security reasons.

  Thank you very much for your fast answer.
  Is there a way that I can change this code (with something else than iframe) in order to get the plugin in my blog?

  If they have a static page where people can vote, you can create a text widget to link to it.

  Thank you.
  I created a page (http://thesongoftheweek.wordpress.com/vote-for-the-blog/), because I thought that the text widget with the link wasn’t pretty but maybe I don’t know how to do it “beautiful”…
