  I’m trying to create a custom widget in my blog’s sidebar using WordPress’ Text widget. When I paste the HTML code into the Widget and click “SAVE”, the text disappears. A similar question was answered 5 days ago, but I’m confident that my code is HTML and not Javascript. The Code I’m using is below:

  <object width="300" height="509"><param name="mporaTT" value="http://mpora.com/surttf/"></param><embed src="http://mpora.com/surttf/" width="300" height="509" name="mporaTT"></embed></object>

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