  Hi

  been pulling my hair out trying to put a widget in a post …. i copied the embedded code and pasted it into the post and nothing happens…

  having read through some previous posts and faq I read that java script cannot be allowed….. but I am not that technical and do not know if the following code has java script in it or not ….all a bit confusing …. here is the said code..

  <div class=”topspin-widget topspin-widget-email-for-media”>
  <object type=”application/x-shockwave-flash” height=”250″ width=”300″ id=”TSWidget18020″ data=”http://cdn.topspin.net/widgets/email2/swf/TSEmailMediaWidget.swf?timestamp=1274944519″ bgColor=”#000000″>
  <param value=”always” name=”allowScriptAccess”/>
  <param name=”allowfullscreen” value=”true”/>
  <param name=”quality” value=”high”/>
  <param name=”movie” value=”http://cdn.topspin.net/widgets/email2/swf/TSEmailMediaWidget.swf?timestamp=1274944519″/>
  <param name=”flashvars” value=”theme=white&highlightColor=0x00A1FF&widget_id=http://cdn.topspin.net/api/v1/artist/1474/email_for_media/18020?timestamp=1269865117″/>
  </object>
  </div>

  will this work …and if so …how?

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

  FLASH is not allowed at WordPress.com. You can’t use that code here, in the sidebar or anywhere else, for security reasons.

  ok thanks … can never get my head around what is and is not allowed….as some widgets like sooundcloud work …and they are flash based (well I think they are)..

  cheers for your replies ;)
