Can’t get code to show up in sidebar
-
I have a travel blog, and wanted to add a weather button, a badge showing an expat blogging group that I belong to, and a German Word of the Day thing. I’ve used the Text Widget to add code to my sidebar, but nothing is showing up correctly. When I copy/paste code in and hit “save”, WordPress erases most or all of the code. The weather button appears as a link, the badge doesn’t appear at all, and the German Word of the Day appears as jumbled code.
Please help; I can’t figure this out!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Perhaps this will clear things up:
http://en.support.wordpress.com/code/
wordpress.com automatically strips off any code that is not allowed. -
That is somewhat helpful, thanks. Do you (or anyone else) know how I can get all my goodies to appear in my sidebar? I know that Blogger does it, and I know I’ve seen little gadgets on a few people’s WordPress blogs. How?

Blogger and WordPress, let alone wordpress.com, are three very different animals. wordpress.com only allows widgets that are either in the widgets list in your dashboard or non-scripted widgets, which there aren’t many of.
