Embed (html) codes for various projects. There is no guarantee these will work on your blog or web site, but usually, they do if you copy and paste using your html tools.
NOTE: It is challenging to keep up with providing these codes, and for some projects, a code may not be available.
NOTE: We could've created an entirely new site for this purpose, but this "backroom page" of this site was good enough to house these items. (You might want to bookmark it if you are planning on "planting" a lot of these tickers during the season; otherwise, you'll have to wait for the actual ticker to go live and then get the embed link from there.)
July 12, 2009: United Cardinal Bloggers (UCB) Live Blog Event

(Optional) How to adjust your live blog window: There are two places in the html code where height and width are designated; change only the numerics for different window size. For example, in the code below, the height is 550 and the width is 400; if you desire, let's say, a wider window, you might change the 400 width to 450. Or, perhaps, you prefer a taller live blog window, in which case you might change the 550 height to 700. You can also make the size smaller, but there are minimum sizes (described below).
Remember:
- The iFrame code contains TWO height and width tags. The first number controls the inner console, and the second controls the outer frame. You must change BOTH width (or both height) tags to the same number.
- The new size must be at least a minimum of 300 pixels in width and 385 pixels in height. Please do not use a number smaller than this or the Viewer Window will not properly display.

What your UCB Live Blog should look like. (Note: once the event goes live, the live blog window will automatically change in appearance.)
* This pixel size is 400 width X 500 height. It fits well on most Blogger blogs. If your blog/site can accomodate a larger or smaller version, you may wish to alter the width/height as described in the "Optional" section above. It may take a few tries to get the size you desire.
For Wordpress, Facebook, Edublog, and MySpace users, embed this link in your post instead of above html code (It will create a pop-up window for your viewers to utilize the UCB Live Blog for July 12):
