I am getting “SHARETHIS is undefined” in a page where I used ShareThis social bookmarking utility. Here is my code

<HTML>
 <HEAD>
  <TITLE>Demo</TITLE>

  <script type="text/javascript">var switchTo5x=true;</script>
  <script type="text/javascript" src="http://w.sharethis.com/button/buttons.js"></script>
  <script type="text/javascript">stLight.options({publisher:'f5b1585e-488a-403c-8b7e-ade3efab880a'});</script>
 </HEAD>

 <BODY>
  <span class='st_sharethis' displayText='ShareThis'></span>
  <script type="text/javascript">
        SHARETHIS.addEntry({
            url:'http://www.google.com'
        }, {button:true} );
    </script>
  </BODY>
</HTML>

Can anyone please tell me what could be the problem and how to resolve?

Thanks,
Amit Patel

    I inspected the DOM using Firebug. No variable named SHARETHIS. However, there is a variable named stWidget which has a function addEntry. I replaced SHARETHIS with stWidget and there were no errors. I dont know the correct behavior of the widget, but there is no error.

    EDIT: Changed the code to share google.com instead of current url.
