HTML savvy types please help

I'm trying to put this badge into my widget section on my blog. The code is generated by smugmug, so it should be good to go.

Unfortunately, when I paste it in the html/text widget, it disappears when I hit SAVE, and the badge doesn't appear.

I know the html widget on the blog works, because it accepts my facebook badge.

Any thoughts or suggestions? It's a wordpress blog. Here

Thanks!

The bolded part is a replacement of "colon, capital D" with a smiley. I don't see "object" in the source of the page you linked. Did you take it back off?

I didn't change anything at all. I'm too clueless to attempt to manipulate.

Maybe wordpress doesn't allow flash as widgets. Your facebook badge is not flash; just an image.

Ah, that would make sense. Maybe it's the flash part. Hmm..ok. Not the end of the world.

I really appreciate you taking the time to look at it. Thank you!

wndrlst, just PM'd you back; but, post your code here like this:

HTML Code:

html code

You can do this in vBulletin by wrapping your code with [html ][ /html] (get rid of the spaces in the braces).

Cool. I responded to your PM, and I'm guessing you're editing the sidebar PHP include for your theme. Have you tried this:

HTML Code:

<div style="float:left">
<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000" width="180" height="350"><param name="movie" value="http://www.moxiephotos.com/swfs/badge/flashbadge.swf?useLargeImages=true&nickName=MoxiePhotos&feedType=&BadgeHost=www.moxiephotos.com&albumID=9122588&albumKey=rErV5&width=180&height=350&gridSpacing=1&gridColumns=1&gridRows=3&background=%23000000&preloaderColor=&preloaderGlow=&gridDelay=2&slideshowDelay=4&order=random&forceSize=&showCaptions=false&introMode=fadein&aboutlink=&sharelink=&albums="><param name="wmode" value="transparent"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always" /><embed src="http://www.moxiephotos.com/swfs/badge/flashbadge.swf?useLargeImages=true&nickName=MoxiePhotos&feedType=&BadgeHost=www.moxiephotos.com&albumID=9122588&albumKey=rErV5&width=180&height=350&gridSpacing=1&gridColumns=1&gridRows=3&background=%23000000&preloaderColor=&preloaderGlow=&gridDelay=2&slideshowDelay=4&order=random&forceSize=&showCaptions=false&introMode=fadein&aboutlink=&sharelink=&albums=" width="180" height="350"  wmode="transparent"  allowScriptAccess="always" ></embed></object>
</div>

Adding a DIV would give it a position in your HTML.

I'm not editing CSS at all, just using their widget. They do allow some CSS edits, but I have to pay extra. :/

At this point, I'm just trying to improve my SEO for my main site with the blog, so it's not that big a dealio. I just thought the little badges were kinda groovy, and a good way to get eyes on multiple samples of my product all in one place.

I would edit the Wordpress PHP sidebar include directly.

Shit. Just realized that your host is Wordpress, that limits what you can do with the include files dramatically. Shooting you a PM.

I had WP uploaded to a friend's server a while back and tied it to my own domain, but then I used that domain for my smugmug account, so I'm back to the pedestrian version. I was going to keep it simple....shyeah.
