Way to use BlogCatalog Javascript widget?

I recently registered on blogcatalog and to verify my blog I have to either place a widget on my blog or use a link-back button. The widget uses Javascript so I know it won’t work on my blog but I was wondering whether there is a way I can use it without using Javascript? Maybe similar to the method shown at http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/07/22/how-do-i-embed-technorati-code/

The code is,
```
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.blogcatalog.com/w/recent.php?id=4304922&amp;width=200
&amp;rows=3&amp;bgcolor=EEEEEE&amp;bcolor=222222&amp;lcolor=777777
&amp;hcolor=AAAAAA&amp;htext=Recent%20Viewers&amp;name=0&amp;
img=s"></script>
```
A side note, I know I can use the link-back button with no problems but I would rather use the widget.

The widget is a “no go”. An image linked to Blogcatalog is the way to go.

I’m sorry it wasn’t the answer you wanted to hear.
Thanks for taking the letdown graciously and happy blogging. :)
Hey, could you please mark this thread “resolved”?

Dear Godlesswanderer,

I am writing here to try to find out if you got BLogCatalog working with your wordpress blog? If so I was wondering would you share with me what “linking back” is and how I should do it?

Thanks in advance.

PS. To the critics I realized this thread is closed, but I did not know how else to contact the asked of the questions so please don’t criticize.

It’s javascript, which is not allowed here at .com.

TT’s solution must work, as I’ve gotten many referrals from Blogcatalog and I certainly don’t use the javascript widget; in fact, I don’t think at the moment I even have a link to them.

Is it possible to get a response to my Jan 8th question please or must I start another thread?

The only thing I have seen as far as myblogcatalog is an image linked to http://www.myblogcatalog.com/directory/

This is the only place I’ve seen it on a wordpress.com blog: http://strawberryfieldsforever.wordpress.com/

I know this is an old question, but I was wondering about time thief’s comment, “An image linked to Blogcatalog is the way to go.” SO, how DO I link an image to my blog then??

How did stawberryfields above manage to link to them?

Thanks,
h
