New aweber form won't integrate into wordpress

I have several wordpress sites I use for my different products.
I am currently rewriting my landing pages and the new aweber forms won't appear right on my pages.

I want to put the form in the middle of a post or page and for some reason the new format just doesn't work.
Aweber also re-edited my old forms so I can't use them either.

If I copy the javascript, nothing happens and when I copy the html, I can only get the basic version of the form, not the nice one I designed.

I have tried copying over the html with the "beautiful form styles" and without.

I have posted a link to a sample of my problem.

Thanks guys!!!

    I haven't updated this plugin for a LONG time, so don't know if it works with the latest versions of wordpress... BUT, it's worth a shot.

    It's an AWeber/Getresponse/Autoresponder integration plugin for wordpress
    http://www.wordpressautoresponder.co...oresponder.zip

    If it does work, let me know - as I'm planning on revisiting the project soon.
    I can't provide support for it at the moment, but it should be fairly self explanatory.

    Kindest regards,
    Karl

    The plugin works, but it looks exactly the same as before. Somehow I can't make it look nice. I will have to do it manually I guess....

    The only problem with the plugin is that now wordpress doesn't include "unit" in the raw html so you have to manually add the list name. This is the same problem with all the wordpress aweber plugins out there right now.

    The new aweber form is MAJOR step back. It was great before.

    I tried to get help from aweber live support. They didn't give me a lot of love, but here is the convo.

    Crystal Gouldey: you have the styling in a comment tag. you just need to close that comment tag prior to starting the styling code
    Jonathan Green: what html do i need to right?
    Jonathan Green: </style>
    Jonathan Green: like that?
    Jonathan Green: right = write
    Crystal Gouldey: <!--<br /> #af-form-15849769 body,<br />
    Crystal Gouldey: and then it never ends
    Jonathan Green: ok
    Crystal Gouldey: you should consult with a web designer if you are unsure how to write it

    I know I need to put -->
    somewhere but I can't tell where. As far as I can tell aweber made an html mistake?

    Hi,

    You should be able to strip out all the garbage the new form generator adds and get it back to the simple form. Everything but the visible HTML shouldn't be a problem. The form code is hidden and basically the same.

    They did change two values that I caught. The name value of the list changed from 'unit' to 'list name' and the name value for the email changed from 'from' to 'email'. Other than that, it's the same.

    I hate the new form generator.

    Thanks,

    John

    For me it's working on wordpress, but I wasn't able to put the new form on static page in .xhtml files..
    strange, but it simply not showing it
