I need to embed this iframe code into the text/html widget and also posts of my blog: <iframe src=”http://widgets.itunes.apple.com/itunes.html?wtype=3&app_id=null&country=us&partnerId=0&affiliate_id=0″ frameborder=0 style=”overflow-x:hidden;overflow-y:hidden;width:250px;height:300px;border:0px” ></iframe>
Wordpress stupidly changes it to this:
http://widgets.itunes.apple.com/itunes.html?wtype=3&app_id=null&country=us&partnerId=0&affiliate_id=0
How can I get the iframe code to embed properly and work?

I can’t read code at all! and all help would be very much appreciated!
Is it possible to code html into wordpress posts? Thanks

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Iframe widgets cannot be used on free hosted WordPress.com blogs. Also note that affiliate marketing links are not allowed. In a nutshell no blogger initiated advertising, retailing or reselling the work created or services provided by anyone other than yourself is allowed on free hosted wordpress.COM blogs. E-commerce transactions via shopping carts and the like cannot be conducted on free blogs from and being free hosted by wordpress.COM

The advertising exceptions noted in support documentation are for high traffic blogs that qualify for and are accepted into the Ad Control program, and for extremely high traffic blogs that qualify and are accepted into the paid VIP hosting program.

If you do require an ecommerce site, advertising and/or affiliate links you can hire a web host and get a free software install from http://wordpress.org Refer to > http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

Thanks for your feedback!
