# IE and external javascript

 * I’m trying to display a petition from ThePetitionSite.com in the sidebar on my
   site at [http://mahonewoodsandfield.net/](http://mahonewoodsandfield.net/). It
   is working in Firefox and Opera, but does not work in IE6 or IE7. ThePetitionSite
   gives the following code to use (this is a new feature for them, and still in
   beta), which I have added to the sidebar.php file:
 * >  <div id=”peSiteTargetDiv339508803″>[Petition powered by ThePetitionSite.com](http://www.thepetitionsite.com/)
   > </div>
   >  <script src=”[http://www.thepetitionsite.com/js/widget.js?petitionID=339508803″></script&gt](http://www.thepetitionsite.com/js/widget.js?petitionID=339508803″></script&gt);
 * All I get is the “Petition powered by…” text, not the box which contains a textfield,
   a button and a list of recent signatures as you see in Firefox.
 * Can anyone help? I noted some similar topics here about adding Flash to WP, where
   it didn’t show up in IE without an OBJECT tag; is this similar, and how would
   I implement it?
