I am not able to get copy/paste HTML widgets to work. I have seen it work but
cannot get anything but code to appear. MS Help says to use CTRL+Q but this
does nothing. I am trying to get a weather insert & Word Of The Day insert on
a school website. Any suggestions?
 
Instructions indicate to use normal view - just to see, I did try HTML view
also with the same failure.

THe MS Help indicated to use design view. I have no design view. The icon is
the same as my normal view. I have also tried using the web components in the
insert menu with no results

I have made this work with a PayPal grapfhic link. It seems there was a
problem then which PayPal had to send me a patch for but that is not possible
now. I am using The Weather Channel and WordOfTheDay so I cannot call them
and they do not respond to my emails.

What am I missing?
 
been doing that as with dictionary.com - hence the problem. The code shows
up and will not convert to an image no matter where or how I paste it.
 
Paste into reply the code snip that show how you have this insert into your page in html/code view.

this is the weather code - I recently tried to inset as web component and got
a link rather than an image - progres but not what I wanted

I am insterting this in normal vew - getting code all over the page - when
inserted in HTML view, I get nothing:

<div id="wx_module_707">
<a href="http://www.weather.com/weather/local/37311">Cleveland Weather
Forecast, TN (37311)</a>
</div>

<script type="text/javascript">

/* Locations can be edited manually by updating 'wx_locID' below. Please
also update */
/* the location name and link in the above div (wx_module) to reflect any
changes made. */
var wx_locID = '37311';

/* If you are editing locations manually and are adding multiple modules
to one page, each */
/* module must have a unique div id. Please append a unique # to the div
above, as well */
/* as the one referenced just below. If you use the builder to create
individual modules */
/* you will not need to edit these parameters. */
var wx_targetDiv = 'wx_module_707';

/* Please do not change the configuration value [wx_config] manually -
your module */
/* will no longer function if you do. If at any time you wish to modify
this */
/* configuration please use the graphical configuration tool found at */
/* https://registration.weather.com/ursa/wow/step2 */
var
wx_config='SZ=300x250*WX=FHW*LNK=HNWL*UNT=F*BGI=seasonal2*MAP=null|null*DN=http';

document.write('<scr'+'ipt
src="'+document.location.protocol+'//wow.weather.com/weather/wow/module/'+wx_locID+'?config='+wx_config+'&proto='+document.location.protocol+'&target='+wx_targetDiv+'"></scr'+'ipt>');
</script>
 
needs to go into Code View.

to be safe copy it into NOTEPAD first then copy/paste that into Code View.

It is supposed to give me a graphic - I am getting a link. I am having the
same result with
http://dictionary.reference.com/help/linking/wordoftheday-simple-widget.html
which is supposed to insert a graphic but instead, I get either code or a
link. The link works but it is not what is supposed to be there.
