google group subscription html not working

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    Google group provided the following to allow someone to join the group. The same software (exact same) worked on one website (http://saveindiafromcorruption.org/?page_id=216 ) but when I tried the same on this website truthaboutindiacorruption.org the place where you enter the email address did not work. The first is on my own host site and other is hosted by wordpress.com. However, I am lost why one works and the other does not.

    <table border=”0″ style=”background-color:#fff;padding:5px;” cellspacing=”0″>
    <tr><td>
    <img src=”http://groups.google.com/intl/en/images/logos/groups_logo_sm.gif” height=”30″ width=”140″ alt=”Google Groups”>
    </td></tr>
    <tr><td style=”padding-left:5px;”>
    <b>Subscribe to Stop Corruption Worldwide</b>
    </td></tr>
    <form action=”http://groups.google.com/group/stop-corruption-worldwide/boxsubscribe”>

    <tr><td style=”padding-left:5px;”>
    Email:

    </td></tr>
    </form>
    <tr><td align=”right”>
    Visit this group
    </td></tr>
    </table>

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

    Hi. That’s because here at WordPress.COM, there are security restrictions which do not apply to self-hosted WordPress.ORG blogs:
    http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/

    In some cases there are workarounds, but as far as forms, you’ll have to simply place a link to the Google Groups page I’m afraid.

    Hi,
    load the script in an iframe.
    I think that will work ok.

    iframes are not allowed here for security reasons, so no it will not. You need to familiarize your self with the differences between blogs hosted here at wordpress.COM, and self-hosted blogs, which have no restrictions on code.

    WordPress.com vs. WordPress.org
