  I have code for a widget that uses an iframe to show the most popular data series from our FRED database. The content for the widget is http://research.stlouisfed.org/fred-glance-widget.php … Since wordpress.com strips out iframes and javascript for security reasons, how can I allow users to embed this content in their site?

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

  Hi there,

  You are right, we do strip both javascript and iframe content from widgets for security purposes. As such the only real suggestion I can provide is to provide something which can be rendered in strict HTML.

  I hope this helps!
