I followed the instructions on the “Promote” page to include my survey in my band’s MySpace profile. I copied the HTML code exactly as listed, but my survey’s looking all funky.

Anybody know what I’m doing wrong here?

Thank you!

Per the myspace profile notes, no javascript is allowed in your profile, only html and css. That means, you will need to remove all code that starts with the tag:

<script

and ends with

</script>

This also means star ratings, order/ranking, and anything past basic textboxes, checkboxes, radio buttons, and essays may not show.

Thanks, Mario, for your quick response. From the “Promote” page, however, I just looked where it says “This method lets you paste the *raw* HTML for your survey’s first page inside stubborn CMS systems like MySpace. You can also use this method for emails…Instructions: Copy and paste this code into your website, myspace profile…”

So I guess my first question is: why would the code enclosed after that include SCRIPT commands if they’re not allowed on MySpace pages?

In any case, I did what you said - went through the entire survey and deleted any mention of <script - and re-pasted the code. It didn’t fix the problem, though:

Any other thoughts? Your help is appreciated. Thank you!

Jayladdin,
A note at the bottom of the publishing tab states:
Frustration Saving Tip #2: If embedding in EMAIL or MYSPACE: Remember, your first page can only have basic questions! Keep the complex javascript-enabled ones for the second page and beyond.

Also, I’m sorry I didn’t make this clearer, you need to strip out all the content between <script … , not just the tags themselves.

Here is what it would look like:

Thanks, Mario. I didn’t realize my first page had anything other than basic questions. In any case, yes, I misunderstood you, and left in a whole bunch of things that I shouldn’t have. The survey looks fine now, and I thank you for your help!
