Can anyone give me advice on doing simple edits on my site (www.ownersmanualforyourkids.com)? I had the site designed by a coder on rentacoder and now just want to make small edits. I've tried dreamweaver and can't make heads or tails of it. Is there a simple way to edit the code? For example, google has a snippet of code that they tell you to insert into your site to make it easier to find. How do I do simple edits like this. Doug BTW - please post step by step instructions if possiblee
If you cant make head or tale of the code, then I wouldnt even bother trying to be honest. You need to learn the code before you start messing about with it - one slip of the wrist and your site could be totally scrapped! Heres a good site for you to start learning, with step by step guides: http://w3schools.com/html/default.asp
Wasn't the code, per se, that I had problems with. It was dreamweaver's program. At any rate, what I'm trying to accomplish is relatively simple. Just add a snippet of code from google into my site's code. Google even tells you where to put it. Just can't find a decent editor that I can do that on easily.
You should be able to do it in Dreamweaver no problem - just put it into Code mode in the top left corner of the screen, and then insert the script just before the </body> right at the bottom of the page (I'm assuming its the analytics script?) If its the Wembaster tools code - just put it anywhere between <head> </head>
