I'm trying to utilize some pre-built code to display data in a Block. Specifically, show a crude oil price quote in a block.

On oil-price.net, they give you code to embed on an HTML site to display a price quote. So how the heck do i get this on a Block?...it looks like this:

enter image description here

This is what they give to embed...

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.oil-price.net/widgets/brent_crude_price_large/gen.php?lang=en"> </script> <noscript> To get the BRENT <a href="http://www.oil-price.net/dashboard.php?lang=en#brent_crude_price_large">oil price</a>, please enable Javascript. </noscript>

  1. Create a block (navigate to Structure -> Blocks -> Add block or http://example.com/admin/structure/block/add)
  2. Make sure you set the Text format of the block to "Full Html"
  3. Paste in your embed code

  • +1 for the security risks. @Dubya - it means "don't do it, unless you really have to".

  • @undersound - thx. Yes i had tried that, but the wysiwyg editor strips all the <script> tag info out. Yes have it set to Full HTML.

  • Ok, found the solution, in CKEditor settings: Go to the "Advanced Options" section of your CKEditor profile and add the following string into the text area: config.allowedContent = true;
