Ken,

See the blog post at: 
http://ensembl.blogspot.com/2008/11/linking-in-to-ensembl.html it's 
slightly more complicated than your email above as you have to indicate 
which of the two panels you are attaching the track to, so:

     
http://www.gramene.org/Oryza_sativa/Location/View?r=1:1-100000;contigviewbottom=url:http://brie.cshl.edu/kyc/rice_3514.gff=normal 


works

James
