Hello,

I participate at the Mariah Carey remix contest.
I submited my remix
my remix works and is listenable in the contest page.

But the widget I have stays blocked on the "Loading..." mode
I saw other people who post their widget and it works for them..
I would like to have all my chances to spread the world too ! ;-)

Can you fix the problem or tell what I can do ?

thanx

FBcool, I just visited your website and it looks like everything is working. Were you able to solve the problem solo?

Thanks,

Vicky (and everyone else), one thing to make sure is that you used the correct embed code for your widget. Go to your submission page, click on the "Share this widget" link, and then either click the "embed" button at the top of the page to get the actual embed HTML, or click on the appropriate button for the type of page you want to embed the widget into (Myspace, Facebook, etc).

I think this works on Firefox. I had the same prob and it worked on Firefox. There's some help on the contest page's FAQ. u

Hi, once again the same problem. Webmaster please fix this problem so we all have a fair chance. My personalized widget just keeps loading. Unable to even get the code to send out to anyone. This is a huge disadvantage and am starting to feel slided. I worked hard on this and want to share it with the world. Thank you.

I have the same problem. I clicked "embed" copied the code and pasted it into my myspace page. All I get is a greyed out widget that says "Loading..." Tried it on IE and firefox. No difference. PLease advise. You can see the offending widget at http://www.myspace.com/karstarmusic
