    I am trying to put my google ads inside my blog post..
    Then i found this tutorial
    http://tips-for-new-bloggers.blogspot.com/2007/05/adsense-code-in-blogger-post-body.html

    it stat that i must change my adsense code to make it done...
    it must replace:
    < with &lt;
    > with &gt;
    " with &quot;

    so, i tried it.. it really work.
    furthermore, in the source code when i view my blog, there is nth different with the original adsense code.
    So, is this against TOS

    This is my blog

    There are many templates or you can add adsense with the tools built with your blogger dashboard, no need to try to play with ads code.

    Changing the codes is violation of adsense TOS. Make sure with adsense guys before you change anything or else you might get banned.

    I would rather prefer to find another solution. Changing the code is quite risky.

    100% against TOS. adsense TOS specifically states that you cannot edit/modify the code that is generated from adsense site. all modifications must be done using adsense setup tool on adsense site. once the code is generated, you place it on your site the way it is

    No, this is fine! The codes you found are just the ASCII expressions for each character (which the computer uses anyway).

    Again, doing this is no trouble at all. :) It does not violate the AdSense TOS.
