Biblegateway embed code: How can I get this to work?
Mar 1 2010, 11:17 AM EST | Post edited: Mar 1 2010, 11:17 AM EST
I've tried to embed a code from biblegateway.com using the 'other widget' option but get this message:

"This appears to be an invalid widget. We support widgets that contain either an Embed tag for Flash content or that are contained within an IFRAME. Please check the code and try again."

I've played around with it to make it work but have not been able to figure it out. I want to know if it is possible to make this work. And, if so, how?

Here is a embed code copy&pasted from biblegateway.com:

<h4>Romans 2</h4><p></p>&nbsp;<sup class="versenum" id="bg_passage-27960">1</sup>Therefore thou art inexcusable, O man, every one who judgest, for in that in which thou judgest another, thou condemnest thyself; for thou that judgest doest the same things. (<a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Romans+2%3A1&amp;version=DARBY&amp;src=embed">Romans 2:1</a>, <a href="http://www.biblegateway.com/versions/Darby-Translation-Bible/?src=embed">Darby Translation</a>)

That does not appear to be a valid embed code. They would need to provide you with a Flash or Iframe embed code in order for it to work on Wetpaint. Do you find this valuable?

You don't need to embed that text. From a technical perspective, it's just regular HTML. Just copy it as formatted text (with nice blue underlined links) and paste it into the page.
