2. You'll be in Template page at Page Element Tab. Now click [Add a Page Element]. Just choose where you'll place the widget is. In this case I set it at bottom of every post, so I'll place it below Posting Blog coloumn (See picture).

3. A popup window will appear. There you can choose what kind of page element you want to add. Now select [HTML/JavaScript] element. Than click [Add to Blog] button. A 'Configure HTML/JavaScript' page will appear, leave it first.
