How to embed an Ask-Box-Widget in an external site?

Question

Just saw here: http://www.getsponge.com/features/widgets.aspx

that they have a widget that you can place on any site.

This is a great idea.

I'd love to provide a "ask a quesiton on xxx" widget that my users can put on their external sites!!!

+1 if this is a good idea, or comment if something is wrong with it ;)

I am just using a form that can be put onto another website with some css.

<!-- GMF WIDGET -->
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=YSenKSkr" /> <form id="askbox" method="POST" action="http://www.gute-mathe-fragen.de/ask"> <input name="title" id="ask" type="text" placeholder="Deine Mathe-Frage?" onfocus="this.placeholder=''" /> <input id="submit" type="submit" value="Los" /> </form>
