Javascript Widget Code

I saw a widget on Musket's forum I'd love to have. Problem is, it requires a javascript code and I'm not sure how to make that into a widget (and one that will match the rest of my site.

Here's a screen shot of the widget I'm talking about, as well as the javascript they've given me. I'm supposing, because of the javascript, that this is a coding problem, and not an appearance problem. If I've put this in the wrong place, please move it. Thanks for your help!



Here's the javascript they gave me:

Code:

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://jh.revolvermaps.com/m.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">rmm_ki101('6',130,'7w4okafgxps','ff0000');</script>

You will have to get the right code from revolver maps, when you're going though the procedure of selecting the globe, tick on the transparent background option, the widget will then take on the background of your forum

There is an option to have the HTML code, but that gives me a flat world map. I'd like to have the javascript 3D map if at all possible (the map you have on your site is truly awesome ^-^), but don't have the knowledge of javascript to make it work in my forum. I'm guessing, since when I click to create a new widget for this it asks for HTML, that I would have to create a new javascript page? Or maybe put this code in the CSS along with a code to make it a widget?

It will accept the javascript, when making a new personal widget. but can only be used or deployed in forum/portal management/structure and not as a posted msg

ACP modules>>Portal and widgets>>Portal management/forumwidgets>>structure...make a new widget..then drag the widget with your mouse to a place on the index or portal page/s



tick the transparent option to match the background of your forum

The code for your forum Index and in transparent is

Code:

<center><script type="text/javascript" src="http://jh.revolvermaps.com/t.js"></script><script type="text/javascript">rmt_ki101('0',178,'70r8rodsvih','ff0000');</script></center>

Ah, ok. Maybe it just didn't work on my laptop (I'm on a desktop now). Thanks for your help, musket!

Please mark as solved!

And for those who would prefer to browse anonymously, you can add revolvermaps.com to your Adblock filter list. That will stop the Revolvermaps IP Address logger from loading.

Are people aware that sites like Revolvermaps are logging people's IP addresses and selling the IP info to advertisers? It's AdWare, plain and simple...

Dion, I had no idea about this. How, when putting certain things on a site, can you find out if they're adware?

The site is safe. What they're doing is collecting your IP address, matching it up with other sites that use their service, and creating a profile that gets sold to advertisers. If an advertiser just happens to also have IMAP email web beacon info sold to them by Yahoo and Google, they can match you and your email address to the IP info from Revolvermaps.

Sorry, I don't play those games. This is why I will NEVER use webmail from Yahoo, Google, or Microsoft, and will block IP-collector sites like Revolvermaps. I have a few Yahoo-based email addresses, but I access them via POP using Thunderbird.

Still wondering about the question above. Also, can my site be cited for adding the widget through litigation?

Adware is a nuisance, but not illegal, unlike male-ware and viruses, but forumotion should put a disclaimer
to the adverts it runs on a site that has not paid for advert removal as the onus and liability rests with the
forum provider if the adverts it runs in anyway cause harm to web users equipment or the taking of money
under false pretences.

Ah, good, because I really like the widget.

Thanks so much for your help on this! I'm going to mark this topic as solved.
