Script code remove from Widget
-
When I try and add a text/html widget to my sidebar any code within the <Script> enclosure is removed when I click Save making the widget not work.
For example I’m trying to add a Twitter widget and this portion of code from it is removed when I click Save:
<script src=”http://widgets.twimg.com/j/2/widget.js”></script>
Anyone know why this is happening?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Thanks guys I will look into it.
The reason I wanted to use Twitter’s widget rather than the WP.com one is cos the latter returns an error lots of the time. I guess that could just be Twitter though.

If you are getting errors then you can try the reconnecting process described here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-twitter

You shouldn’t see errors all the time for a Twitter feed. :-| I just looked at your blog and the Twitter widget was working fine when I checked (I know it’s just one check though).
Side note: Did you see the new Twitter announcement? There’s a new follow button that you might like: 3 New Ways to Attract More Twitter Followers from WordPress.com

The Theme I’m using is MistyLook which has green links but I’ve added some Custom CSS to change that to red. This works for all links except for my Twitter name next to the new Follow button, which still appears in green :(
