  Hello,

  I’d like to display one or both of the UrbanSpoon Widgets (available here: http://www.urbanspoon.com/u/blog_widgets/23/5191#widget ) on my WordPress blog.

  This one is especially cool: http://www.urbanspoon.com/b/posts_map/23/5191/Pittsburgh-restaurants

  One uses an iframe tag, and one uses a script tag.

  I know workarounds exist… but do I have a WordPress-sanctioned way to go use either interactive feature & pop it into a widget?

  How about an UrbanSpoon widget???

  Hi there,

  Unfortunately we don’t allow Javascript, Flash, iframe, form, and input tags at WordPress.com for security reasons:

  However, the first two Widgets available on UrbanSpoon do appear to be compatible with the WordPress.com Text Widget.

  If you’d like to suggest including an UrbanSpoon Widget on WordPress.com for the other two Widget UrbanSpoon offers, I encourage you to post your idea in the ideas forum!
