Hey, I am trying to add a unit converter to one of my pages from http://unitconversion.org/. The code that was provided by the site was:

<!-- DENSITY CONVERTER END -->

The unit converter shows up fine on the page as expected, but once you try and use it does not respond. I think the problem lies in the call to the JavaScript file;

<script src=http://www.unitconversion.org/converter3/converter3.js></script>

as I’ve heard of some problems with JavaScript in WordPress. I tried adding the following lines of code in replace of the code above as suggested by Docs in WordPress;

<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.unitconversion.org/converter3/converter3.js"></script>

It did not change anything. I would be incredibly helpful if someone could help me or lead me in the proper direction. Thanks in advance.

looks like their code REQUIRES a linkback to their site

Yes it does, i'm sorry I forgot to mention so. When I attempted to use the code I also included the link back:

<a href="http://www.unitconversion.org">UnitConversion.org</a> - the ultimate unit conversion resource.

don't know what to say. I copied their length converter and it worked fine for me. I suggest you try to contact them about what is wrong with the java

Yes I did use that plugin but It didn't work too well. Thanks Though.

So, I figured out that there is nothing wrong with their JavaScript. I switched my Theme to the default WordPress theme they give you when you first download it, and the converter worked perfectly well.
Taking this into account I am inclined to think that the reason the converter isn't working in Atahualpa is because of one of the theme options, or at least something specific to the Atahualpa Theme and not WordPress.

I am just learning how to work with this theme and would be really grateful if someone could help me out, as this has proved to be an incredibly vexing problem for me.

Thanks in advance!

just where did you put the code?
I just put the code and the linkback in a post and it works fine

Hey juggledad. That is very very odd. Here's a link to where I put my converter;

http://enggplusplus.org/unit-conversion

It just says "loading, please wait..." and stays like that, when I added it to the default theme it worked perfectly well and gave an answer right away.

I just added it in Page Edit in WordPress. I also created a custom page template and included the code in that, and it gave the same response.

I figured it out!

Turns out I had a corrupted option bfa_ata4 in my database.
I was fiddling around in Theme Options and I deleted the option 'bfa_ata4', once I reloaded my site the converter was working perfectly. Only downside is that I forgot to Export my settings, but I am happy nonetheless.

Thanks to all who replied.
