Can anyone help me put a badge on 360*?

Question

<div style="width:250px;background-color:#fff... src="http://news.yahoo.com/candidate-bad... flashvars="candidate=obama" bgcolor="#ffffff" width="250" height="360" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/get... />
<a href="http://www.yahoo.com/" style="float:right;"><img src="http://l.yimg.com/us.yimg.com/i/mig... alt="Yahoo!" width="33" height="19" border="0" /></a><a href="http://news.yahoo.com/elections/" style="color:#555;font-family:sans-serif... latest stories on Yahoo! News</a></div>

This is what was on the clipboard. I pasted it on my blog. No badge - just what shows above.

Hi,

You may not have Shockwave-Flash enabled on your PC, or there could be a problem with the code you copied. I have the Flash version of the badge on my 360 page, and the code on mine is a lot shorter.

Try this code instead:

&lt;embed allowScriptAccess=&quot;never&quot; base=&quot;.&quot; src=&quot;http://answers.yahoo.com/info/yAnsw... id=&quot;y_answrs_flash_badge&quot; type=&quot;application/x-shockwave-flash&quot; width=&quot;620&quot; height=&quot;150&quot; flashVars=&quot;KID=AA10758094&amp;color=green&amp;in...

To use it, go to your 360 page, add a new entry to your blog, paste the code into the entry box. You might want to add a headline/title. Just type that in the normal space. Save/post the entry, then check your blog and see what you&#039;ve got.

And if you need to install Shockwave, you can download it at http://www.adobe.com/shockwave/download/... It&#039;s free, and it&#039;s safe.
