I cannot figure out how to get widgets to go into xanga. I would like to have my menu, my subscriptions, and my media player to all be floating around the page on top of everything else. And they should scroll with the page. I should be able to grab them, and drag them anywhere around the screen, on top of the words and the buttons and the pictures, as if they were in separate windows, but not.

If you don't understand what I am talking about, check out the media player on my xanga. You'll notice that it can be dragged around, but it can't go outside it's little box. I want it to be able to go anywhere on the page, and be able to go on top of everything else.

My Xanga

If there is a way to do this, I would like to start creating little winamp-like media players and animated calendars (like rainlender) and different things like that. Like MAC widgets or DesktopX widgets...

Something like this?
I don't think it's possible... Maybe if you did a Javascript include or something... -shrug- You can play around with it and see what you come up with.

I just wanna get this code to go in the top z-index so it doesn't take up so it doesn't add that huge space, that way a person could grab it, and take it anywhere. You can already drag it inside it's own little window, so I figure, if I can get it on top of everything else, I can just change the dimensions to 750 x 2000...

CODE
<div><center><embed src="/disclosed/player.swf" menu="false" quality="high" width="750" height="350" name="index" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" flashvars="playList=/disclosed/playlist.xml&ShowPlaylist=1&ShowEQ=1&firstTrack=11&initVol=100&shuffle=1" wmode="transparent" border="0" /></center></div>
