"Tell a Friend" Button (Bookmark or Social Network Button)

Question

I'm trying to add a popular social network button called "Tell A Friend". When I add the html snippet to my website it doesn't work. The URL that gets passed to to the pop up box is completely wrong. I believe it references the iFrame, but I'm not sure.
I've been to several websites that claim the solution is to add a text box then the html to the text box (via find/replace) but this doesn't work.
Does anyone know the solution to this problem?
Any suggestions would be super appreciated.

If the code for the button is a JavaScript, then iFrames (HTML snippet) is not the place to put it.
To have the button on your page :
1. create a Text box that is 2 pixels bigger than the actual button,
2. position the text box where you want the button to appear,
3. in this text box type something like AAAA,
4. publish to MobileMe,
5. mount iDisk in the finder,
6. this depends on the button code :
6.1 if the code is specific to 1 page : do it by hand...
6.2 if the code is valid for several pages : use TextWrangler http://www.barebones.com/products/textwrangler/
7. search the HTML file for AAAA
8. replace AAAA with the button code
9. save
10. eject iDisk
