Amazon Ads Problem

Post by john22 » Thu Apr 06, 2006 8:19 pm

Hi,
I created a simple module to display the content of amazon ads. When I paste the content from Amazon into the module it does not show up. Any suggestions?

Thanks,
John

Many of the wysiwyg editors strip out 'dangerous' or unrecognised html tags and/or parameters.
If your wysiwyg editor has a 'raw html' mode then select that option before pasting the code in.
If that doesn't help then you may want to turn off your wysiwyg editor temporarily.
Quickest way:
On the 'Site' menu in the administrator backend, select user management, click your account and on the right set editor to 'no editor'.
Re-edit your module and paste your raw html directly into the text box.
Click save.
Is the module present and working correctly?
Now re-enable your wysiwyg editor by reversing the change you made earlier.
