   Cbox site: http://cbox.ws/
   I want to add a tagboard to my sidebar.
   Moving from Blogger to WordPress, I find that wordpress likes to cut out some html code. I used a text widget and stuck in the html code for a tag board:

   <!-- BEGIN CBOX - http://www.cbox.ws -->
   <div align="center" id="cboxdiv">
   <iframe frameborder="0" width="160" height="305" src="http://www2.cbox.ws/box/?boxid=1594511&boxtag=9252&sec=main" marginheight="2" marginwidth="2" scrolling="auto" allowtransparency="yes" name="cboxmain" style="border:#FEFEFE 1px solid;" id="cboxmain"></iframe><br/>
   <iframe frameborder="0" width="160" height="75" src="http://www2.cbox.ws/box/?boxid=1594511&boxtag=9252&sec=form" marginheight="2" marginwidth="2" scrolling="no" allowtransparency="yes" name="cboxform" style="border:#FEFEFE 1px solid;border-top:0px" id="cboxform"></iframe>
   </div>
   <!-- END CBOX -->

   WordPress strips it all into this:

   <!-- BEGIN CBOX - http://www.cbox.ws -->
   <div align="center">
   <br>

   </div>
   <!-- END CBOX -->

   Obviously, the new code does absolutely nothing, and I can't figure out how to get around this. =S

   You can't. Tagboards are not allowed on WP.com blogs for security reasons. You can have a meebo widget instead, but that's about it.

   Note that the CSS upgrade applies only to the look of your blog; it does nothing whatsoever to circumvent security restrictions. Those are in force for all non-VIP blogs on WP.com; VIP hosting costs several hundred dollars per month.
