    I know that Java doesn't work here but I found this really cute widget at widgetbox.com and it has a flashcode. How can I use it? Or better yet, how I can I change it toa gigya shortcode?

    This is the code

    "<object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" codebase="http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=9,0,0,0" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="330px" height="423px" id="InsertWidget_df3c175f-1cc7-4f82-b785-326dfcf8fc53" align="middle"><param name="movie" value="http://www.widgetserver.com/syndication/flash/wrapper/InsertWidget.swf"/><param name="quality" value="high" /><param name="wmode" value="transparent" /><param name="menu" value="false" /><param name="flashvars" value="r=2&appId=df3c175f-1cc7-4f82-b785-326dfcf8fc53" /><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="sameDomain" /> <embed src="http://www.widgetserver.com/syndication/flash/wrapper/InsertWidget.swf" name="InsertWidget_df3c175f-1cc7-4f82-b785-326dfcf8fc53" width="330px" height="423px" quality="high" menu="false" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" flashvars="r=2&appId=df3c175f-1cc7-4f82-b785-326dfcf8fc53" ></embed></object>"

    Thank you for the reply, but it is not a video it is a widget ( a virtual cat to be exact :p). do you think it will still work for me ?

    If you follow the instructions to change the code, yes. Put it in a text widget once you've translated it to Gigya shortcode.

    Forget it. The procedure works but the widget doesn't turn up instead it says "resources not found"

    Thanks for your help though.

    What's the exact [gigya...] code you copied-pasted into your blog?

    [gigya src="http://www.widgetserver.com/syndication/flash/wrapper/InsertWidget.swf" width="330px" height="423px" quality="high" wmode="transparent" allowFullScreen="true"align="middle" allowScriptAccess="sameDomain" flashvars="r=2&appId=df3c175f-1cc7-4f82-b785-326dfcf8fc53 ]

    * first time I ever did anything like this

    Your shortcode won't work because it's missing the closing quote before the closing bracket.

    For an easier way to convert the original, just copy this part:
    <embed src="ETC ETC ETC" ></embed>
    and change it to this:
    [gigya src="ETC ETC ETC" ]

    A single quote was the problem all this time!

    Thank you so much. Really appreciate the help everyone.
