To test out the tracking widget, click on the demo tracking widget image button. The Tracking Widget is a combination of HTML (to display the button) and JavaScript (to open the window) code and can be inserted into any website. You may require the assistance of your webmaster to place our Tracking Widget button on your website as you will need to edit HTML codes. Alternatively, you can always send your customers the direct Tracking Widget link. Note: You can change the image of the Tracking Widget button to your own by changing the src property of the HTML input button to point to your image file.
