Sidebar Wont Accept My Non Java Flash Widget

hi,
it keeps putting the widget in the main forum and not the sidebar.  here is the code...

<param name="movie" value="http://www.magicwidgets.com/widgets/text-generator/textFinal.swf?textF=COMING SOON TO HORROR CLASSICS&effect=birinci&url=http://www.criticallayouts.com/ ">
<param name="quality" value="high">

<br>
<font><a href="http://www.magicwidgets.com/">MySpace Flash Widgets</a>

why wont the sidebar accept this.  i think the size should fit...?

ratibor, horrorclassics

Is that all the code? I see a </object> at the end, but there's no corresponding <object> at the start of the code... I would have expected something like this at the start

<object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="450px" height="90px" align="middle">

450px is too wide for your sidebar, though...

And I've edited your thread title for all caps.

This works in IE8, but not in FF... Probably dodgy code from magicwidgets...

yep, i changed the sizes, then, ended up using something else.  thanks for the help coloneljack!!
