Hello,

I really like the idea of having a flash panel that displays your Zazzle products. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to get it to work on Wordpress sites. In pages and posts, you can input HTML code, however for some reason, some of the code gets deleted once it is saved. Here's an example of what I mean.

This is what I copy and paste into the page:

<embed src="http://www.zazzle.com/assets/swf/zp/zp.swf?st=POPULARITY&tl=ismyhomeboy%27s+Gallery+at+Zazzle&ch=ismyhomeboy" FlashVars="path=http://www.zazzle.com/assets/swf/zp/skins" width="450" height="300" wmode="transparent" TYPE="application/x-shockwave-flash"></embed><br /><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/">make custom gifts</a> at <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/">Zazzle</a>

And this is what is left once it gets saved:

<br /><a href="http://www.zazzle.com/">make custom gifts</a> at <a href="http://www.zazzle.com/">Zazzle</a>

Do you know why this is, or how I can get around it? Thanks.

Have you updated to the latest wordpress?
I recommend trying to put the code in the html text input of wordpress and without checking publish it. It works for me.

If it doesn't work for you though I'm pretty sure there is a plugin over at wordpress that allows you to use any code in your text area.

hmm...

Are you using the blog from wordpress.com, or do you have your own domain on which you installed the wordpress plugin and blogged from that?

I'm using wordpress.com

I know this may a bit late since this post is about a month old. This happens when wordpress try's to convert the code in the visual editor. If you use the html editor and stick with it you shouldn't have this problem.
