Embedding problems

Josh_s Dad 26 Apr 2008 16:32

I've had similar problems I've worked around by stripping everything after an ending directive such as </script> or </iframe>

For example, the following embedded code for a google map didn't work:

<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=eastview+high+school+apple+valley+mn&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=44.74275,-93.21758&amp;spn=0.00745,0.052136&amp;output=embed&amp;s=AARTsJpYCMhBE7eDrMKGkQOYbkBAvlh26Q"></iframe><br /><small><a href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=eastview+high+school+apple+valley+mn&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;ll=44.74275,-93.21758&amp;spn=0.00745,0.052136&amp;source=embed" style="color:#0000FF;text-align:left">View Larger Map</a></small>

But the following did:

<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" src="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&amp;hl=en&amp;geocode=&amp;q=eastview+high+school+apple+valley+mn&amp;ie=UTF8&amp;s=AARTsJpYCMhBE7eDrMKGkQOYbkBAvlh26Q&amp;ll=44.74275,-93.21758&amp;spn=0.042674,0.072956&amp;z=13&amp;output=embed">
</iframe>

Hope this helps

Thanks for discovering this. I had exactly the same problem trying to embed a google map and this fixed it perfectly.

Embedding PHP?

(account deleted) 16 Jan 2008 23:02

I am trying to embed the following code:

Chaos Worlds Server Status:

<?php
// Set up server connection variables
$ip = "70.181.149.105";
$port = 7234;
// Attempt to establish a connection
$sock = @fsockopen($ip, $port, $errnum, $error, 5);
if (!$sock) {
//If it fails $real (stands for REALtime server status) is set to "OFFLINE" in red.
$real = '<B><FONT COLOR=red>OFFLINE</b></FONT>';
} else {
// If connection is a success then do this
// You may need to uncomment the following line if it doesn't seem to be working.
//stream_set_timeout($sock, 2);
// Set $real to "ONLINE" in green.
$real = '<B><FONT COLOR=lime>ONLINE</b></FONT>';
// Add the text "Players Currently Online: " to the next line down
$real .= "<br>Players Currently Online: ";
// Send "top" to the server
fwrite($sock, "top");
// Read what the server sent back and convert it to an integer variable
// and then add it to the $real variable
$real .= (int)trim(fread($sock, 2));
}
echo $real;
?>

How do I embed standard HTML?

Bill Kules 08 Jan 2008 22:24

When I try to embed standard HTML using the [[embed]] tags, I get a message that says "Sorry, no match for the embedded content." Am I misunderstanding how this works? Shouldn't I be able to embed standard HTML? I don't want to use the [[iframe]] element.

Thanks for any help…
Bill

Re: How do I embed standard HTML?

webpromotion 12 Jun 2008 02:36

Yes, I'm having the same problem, too!
What should we do if we want to use HTML?
Without HTML, our site just looks so boring!!! Really!
Just plain texts!
No pics, no sounds, no videos!
Can be no more boring, I believe!

Pls, Admins of wikidot, help us!!!

Grand Central

christmas4kids 31 Dec 2007 17:18

I havn't been able to get GrandCentral to work. Is there a special embed code for flash files?

Re: Grand Central

I've got the same problem with GrandCentral :(

Plugoo

pgavin 08 Oct 2007 13:38

Has anyone gotten plugoo to work on wikidot? I can't seem to pull it off; I get the following error message:

Sorry, no match for the embedded content.

Re: Plugoo

remilio 20 Oct 2007 16:38

Not tried plugoo, but I'm having trouble wth gadgets, such as googlemaps and one from SpringWidgets - a countdown. It comes up with precisely the same error message…

What needs to be done? Have successfully embedded other gadgets from google.

Cheers, remilio
