Hi, I am trying to share a button within a post as requested by the community I want to link to. They provide the image and the code but I don’t know what to do with it.
The graphic and code are here – http://www.aholyexperience.com/2003/06/buttons-to-use-and-share/. Can you please tell me how to do this?

hi, can you tell me what I’m doing wrong? My logo button appears right on my blog, but when I test it, no image comes up with the code…Thank you!

That was the best and easiest way I have seen how to add this widget. I love that it says, “grab now,” and not just the code! Thanks a million!

[...] I had saved all of my sidebar html for just this purpose. Imagine my surprise when I couldn’t find the html for the grab button widget ? Of course I could go to my original post to re-create the scrollbox — Grab My Button, Promote My Blog. Similary to recreate the ‘add to Blogger’ click button I just had to follow the tutorial for widget one click installation. [...]

HI Karen,
I checked you blog and seems like the full code has not been added. I’d suggest going through tutorial once again and add code from scratch. Let me know if you want to ask anything else.
Thanks.

Hello,
Below is what I’ve added to a HTML Blogger gadget for my sidebar. I’m hoping to have my button and then directly underneath to have the “Grab My Button” text but it isn’t working. My blog page is at http://www.ecoinspired.blogspot.com
Can you help? Thanks.

Hello and welcome!

As for testing your grab button you can just copy it just as a reader would, then paste it into a new widget on your sidebar as a test only. Display and check the link, then delete the test widget. Here's how it would look [works fine!]:

As for the Add to Blogger button, it's not working, I tried to click and nothing happened. You can test yourself by clicking and if it worked you'd be able to add the button to your blog [then delete it as above!]. So you need to go over the setup again. Are you sure you put the form code below your textarea stuff in the same widget?

If you still need help, send me the entire widget code in an email [I'll send you a note with my gmail].
