So I thought to embed there a forum page which is hosted somewhere else or a Facebook wall … where they reply. They might go somewhere else to post answers… but it would be nice if they could see replies embedded on that Xerte page… So something similar to that - … <a href="http://www.neosmart.de/social-media/facebook-wall" target="_blank">http://www.neosmart.de/social-media/facebook-wall</a> embedded in Xerte page would make me the most happier person on this planet… </span></p><p class="ecxMsoNormal"><span style="font-size: 11pt;
