Answer 1

some codes wont work on yahoo groups description and sometimes you need to upload it to a host site and then grab that code in order for it to work

Answer 2

David, I took a look at your home page description.  What you are attempting is no longer allowed on Yahoo groups descriptions.  For now, just give a good written description of your group.  Then do the following:

  

If you have a personal website or someone else's who would allow you to do so, you could place your html there.  Then place a link to it in your group's Links area so your members could click on that link to view your application.  

Then go back and edit your group's description and add a line advising members to go to the Links section of group and click on the specific link.

Adding HTML might be possible on Y! groups later next year if Yahoo does roll out a new groups format.   Good luck with your new group!
