Magento – Add CMS static-block in attribute text area

attributesstatic-block

I have some share-buttons in a static-block. I control some content on product-level by custom attributes. Is it possible to add a static block in a attribute text area. I tried with {{block type="cms/block" block_id="your_block_id"}} but it's not working?

Thanks

UPDATE:

On this page, look for the text "Famke (en Joost) – Deventer". This content is added at Manage product > product in an Attribute text-area. Below this alinea (in the same text-area i want to add the static-block (with its content, the share buttons). I have to do it like this because of some CSS classes.

I've had also the same issue and I found little free extension here http://www.magentocommerce.com/magento-connect/static-blocks-everywhere.html

which allows you to add static block in Description (short too), Agreement and Category description.

If you will take a look at code of this extension you will have clear picture of how to implement it to the custom attributes on product page.

I will update this answer once I will test it with the other combinations.

UPD: That Extension that I mentioned earlier does what it says, but for only three instances, Agreement, Category and Product Descriptions (You can see that in code)

Also you can read here http://forum.azmagento.com/how-to/product-text-area-attribute-with-wysiwyg-src-quot-123-123-media-url-quot-folder-imagejpg-quot-125-125-not-parsed-41450.html

How to parse static block in any text area attribute.

Now I'm able to display my responsive tabs with very flexible way to update and create content - calling specific static blocks.
