for this to work, the document you're clicking to the deed *from* needs to be accessible on the public internet.
  
Thanks Nathan(s): that's the point. In my case, the referrer was a local HTML document.

By the way, I should have imagined that: today I discussed the issue here at the NEXA Center with Davide Bardone, and we noticed that no argument was passed to the commons deed page, so we supposed that the check had to involve the referrer... Hence, we had all the elements to understand why in our case the deed was not showing up as we expected.

So, my issue is solved and, if you want, you can just keep the implicit suggestion of my email, that is providing also the code for the "+ Commercial Licence" logo, as an output of the chooser, e.g.:
Creative Commons License + Image:Commercial-license-button.png

Thanks again and best regards,

Federico

Hi Federico,

You are correct.  Using the license chooser to generate some HTML
*and* filling in the "More permissions URL" should yield a special
section on the Deeds.  It seems to be working fine for me.  I just
used the chooser to generate some HTML and pasted it into a sample
page:

http://a6.creativecommons.org/~nkinkade/ccplus.html

If you click on the license link, the Deed should have two special
sections.  Under the "You are free:" section at the top the last part
should be an icon with a plus in a circle telling you where you can go
for more permission.  On the lower half, below "Under the following
conditions:" you should see a special attribution link.

If that isn't working for you when using the code provided by the
license chooser, then could you put up a sample somewhere to
demonstrate it not working?  Perhaps part of the confusion is that the
"More permissions" section shows up on the top part, and not on the
bottom part as you saw in the images on the CC wiki?

Dear All,

apologies if I ask a question to the list before having conducted a full
research online, but I would appreciate your help in order to support an
ongoing negotiation for the publication of a novel under a CC license,
adopting the CC+ approach.

My problem is that I'm not able to find out what kind of code I'm
supposed to use in order to replicate the result displayed (for
instance) here:

http://wiki.creativecommons.org/File:Ccplus_slides.050.jpg

I tried to copy the code snippets available here
(http://wiki.creativecommons.org/CCPlus#Easy_CC.2B_Markups), but I was
not able to make them work (I mean: the more permissions related link
worked, of course, but I could not see the commons deed as in the image
above).

Moreover, if I fill in the "More permissions URL" field in the license
chooser, I would expect the provided code to help me setting up
something within the context of the CC+ protocol, but - again - nothing
similar to this
(http://wiki.creativecommons.org/File:Ccplus_slides.064.jpg) or this
(http://wiki.creativecommons.org/File:Ccplus_slides.057.jpg) shows up.

I know that CC+ is "just" a CC license + another agreement providing
additional rights, however the fancy stuff related to the commons deed,
etc. may help in marketing CC+ related efforts: currently, it seems to
me that the full potential of CC+ is unexploited (and/or that it's not
obvious how to technically do that).

Thanks in advance for any feedback and best regards,

Federico

PS
Also this link
(https://lists.ibiblio.org/sympa/arc/cc-community/2009-August/004830.html)
seems to suggest that "CC+ will ... show up on the deeds if you click
through from a web page that contains the CC+ metadata".... this is
precisely what I would like to achieve.
