Adding HTML to Geocaching.com listing page

Hi,

 

I'm working on a new geocache, concretely an earthcache.

 

I would like to add a map in the listing page, but this map is not an image (that is easy to add); it's a link to a map with multiple layers that is in another page. If I modify this map (ie adding information) it would be shown the new features in the earthcache listing page, too.

 

I use Kompozer to design the page, and once finished I copy-paste to the geocaching listing pages; this has worked fine for me several times. But not now when I am trying to embedd html code: it works fine in Kompozer and in the Kompozer preview, but once I copy-paste to the geocaching page, the map does not show.

 

The code is

 

 

<iframe marginheight="0" marginwidth="0"

src="http://www.instamaps.cat/instavisor/63438690/3b80cbe4595c02548624a28dad9e3930/Traquites_de_Vilacolum.html?3D=false&embed=1"

frameborder="0" height="480" scrolling="no" width="640"></iframe>

 

 

Can anybody that could help me, please?

 

Thanks a lot.

 

Xavier

Substitute that for the iframe code that your editor is creating. Instead of having the image on the page, have a link to it.

 

Geocaching.com says on the cache edit page, "Javascript and other embedded codes are not allowed."

 

iframe is used to embed another document within the current HTML

I expect there are workarounds, but I also suppose that few of them will work, or display the image properly on all browsers
