Some sites are not allowing (stripping out) the widget script. Ebay for example is removing the script in my listings.

Any suggestions?

Tony,

This is a common problem with widgets. There is nothing much you can do for eBay right now. We will have an iframe version of the widget but eBay strips out the iframe tag as well.

I would suggest using the custom lead forms functionality or linking to your Nesters.com listing. Click here to see how we have linked a listing we have on ebay.

this is totally off topic here, but I was just trying to learn about widgets today on "real bird".  What is it all about?  Can you help?

Mary,

A widget is a piece of code that you can enbed in any HTML page. Basically it is functionality that runs on the service provider servers but you can use on your website, blog etc.

Below is a lead form widget I included in this post.

I simply copied the widget code into the HTML of my post. Note: when creating forum posts you can see the HTML by click on the source button (upper left) of the HTML editor.

Let me know if this helped.
