Custom sidebar module (Transmogrified) w/ javascript possible?

[blnchflr]

Is it possible to add a custom sidebar module, where I can place a javascript downcount timer?

I don't think you can add in Javascript unless the service has been whitelisted.

You might want to request in suggestions that whatever service it is be whitelisted.

And even then I don't think it'd work in the style--I don't think we have style embeds yet.

Just to make sure I understand you correctly: The counters people have in profiles (or am I making it up that I've seen them on DW?) either aren't javascript, or they've been whitelisted by DW?

They're not Javascript, but HTML counters, yes. You can have an HTML counter in an entry or on your profile. I'm not sure about the sidebar, though.

Alright, thanks for the info :o) !

You should be able to have an HTML counter in a free text module on the sidebar, I think.

It's not a hit counter, but a countdown ticker in javascript. Oh, well, I can live without it :o)

Oh, I mean the HTML based countdown tickers that I've seen! They are image based.
