beginner trying to embed....

[Jlcarroll]

So I was trying to embed a wave, and I downloaded the hello world code
here:

http://code.google.com/apis/wave/embed/guide.html

and then I tried to change things to point at my wave... I changed the
initialize as follows:

function initialize() {
var wavePanel = new WavePanel("https://wave.google.com/wave/");
wavePanel.loadWave("252BQXjoHNhAA.9");
wavePanel.init(document.getElementById('waveframe'));
}

I get a blank page....

If I change the var wavePanel to add a #restored to the end I get my
whole interface with a bland wave opened... I think that I understand
what is happening there, so I assume that my problem is with the id, I
am loading an empty wave because my wave id is wrong?

I tried a few variants for the wave id as well such as:

wave:googlewave.com!w%252BQXjoHNhAA.9

googlewave.com!w%252BQXjoHNhAA.9

and

!w%252BQXjoHNhAA.9

The instructions say to use the debug button to find the wave id, but
that isn't there any more in the preview release. From what I read on
here, it is now in the url, but it is not entirely clear how much of
that url should be included in the wavePanel.loadWave field.

Thanks.

Sometimes the requested files in the the embedded iframe timeout. It's not
perfect by any means.

You can add the temporary bot blog...@appspot.com to your wave, it will
report the wave ID and some sample embed markup that is reported to work. You
can probably modify/tweak things from there.

Thanks for that suggestion. I just added it to one of my preview
account waves and it spits this out:

Paste this snippet wherever you want the wave to show up:

<div id="wave" style="width: 560px; height: 420px"></div>

And this one right before your </body> tag:

<script
type="text/javascript"
src="http://wave-api.appspot.com/public/embed.js">
</script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var wave =

new WavePanel('https://wave.google.com/wave/');

wave.setUIConfig('white', 'black', 'Arial', '13px');
wave.loadWave('googlewave.com!w+xqoDO1w0A');
wave.init(document.getElementById('wave'));
</script>

Hope this helps.

Didn't work for me first time either. Figured out it doesn't work when
accessing the HTML from your file system. Whack the embed html on a
web server somewhere, that should sort it.
