    Hi,

    Every time I try to add a widget with html code, text is deleted after save. I tried different codes and browsers. Same thing happen.

    One of the widgets I would like to have is a music player, for example Podsnack.

    <iframe src="http://files.podsnack.com/iframe/embed.html?hash=aui270ef&wmode=window&bgcolor=FFFFFF&t=1341788398" width="300" height="395" seamless="seamless" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true"></iframe>

    Or..

    <img style="visibility:hidden;width:0px;height:0px;" border=0 width=0 height=0 src="http://c.gigcount.com/wildfire/IMP/CXNID=2000002.0NXC/bT*xJmx*PTEzNDE5NDY1NTMzMDImcHQ9MTM*MTk*NjU1OTgxMCZwPTEyMTkxNTEmZD*mZz*xJm89MmUzMGQwOWQ*MmVhNGRmM2I1/MzRmNjc1M2FlZDRmNjEmb2Y9MA==.gif" /><object id="embededPodsnackFlash_aui270ef" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://files.podsnack.net/app/swf/EmbedCanvas.swf?hash_id=aui270ef&t=1341788398" width="300" height="395"><param name="movie" value="http://files.podsnack.net/app/swf/EmbedCanvas.swf?hash_id=aui270ef&t=1341788398"><param name="bgcolor" value="#FFFFFF"><param name="allowScriptAccess" value="always"></object><noscript>To view this music player you need to have Flash Player 9 or newer installed and JavaScript enabled. PodSnack enbles you to create website audio players very easily.</noscript>

    Neither works. Ive tried some other ones swell with same issue.

    Is the coding wrong for my theme? I have no clue :)

    Thanks!

    We aren't allowed to use iframes and other embed codes, for security reasons. Flash embed codes, in particular (such as your second example) can be converted to a working shortcode:
    [gigya src="http://files.podsnack.net/app/swf/EmbedCanvas.swf" flashvars="hash_id=aui270ef&t=1341788398" width="300" height="395" bgcolor="#FFFFFF" allowScriptAccess="always" ]
