I thought I had to instal Java script in order to copy and paste the HTML code to my site and have it look the way it should, but instead the actual code showed up. what do I do?
you might have just added it in the wrong area... when you go to edit your page, at the top of one of the boxes it says Code Editor and Visual Editor... for your codes to work and not just come up as is typed you need to cahnge to Code Editor...
i had problems with the same thing, what you type in visual editor shows up as is...
Another thing to check is to make sure the extension used for the page is .html. If it is .txt, text is all that will show up. If you could direct me to the page in question, I would be happy to look at it for you. Many times a missing terminator can also cause this to happen.
