  Hello,

  I useedavascript code in HTML view of my new page. When I saved it as draft, the javascript tag was automatically removed.
  Is this default behavior of Worpress?

  Please advise.

  Thank you

  Javascript, flash, iframes and forms are not allowed here due to security concerns. There are also limits on the plain HTML that can be used here. WordPress.COM is a multi-user platform which means we all share the same underlying theme and wordpress files and any bad code, or security issue introduced by a user could bring down a bunch of blogs.

  What exactly were you trying to do? We have some pretty clever volunteers here that have figured out workarounds for a number of things.

  Hi Sacred
  how did you get that space for people to put their email address in for subscription for feedburner? I put the script in but i did not get the space like you did. Help would be welcomed

  @whhj001122, You can use the feedburner blog subscription here, but on the page where you get the code, you have to scroll down further to get the non-javascript code. When people click on it in your text widget, a small feedburner window will open where they can enter their email address. It works very well. I used the plain HTML code here before I moved my blog.
