Trouble adding adsense code into css site

I've been trying to add the adsense code, but it keeps changing from this:

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-xxxxxxxxxx";
/* 250x250, created 9/16/11 */
google_ad_slot = "xxxxxxxxx";
google_ad_width = 250;
google_ad_height = 250;
//-->
</script>
<script type="text/javascript"
src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>

to this:

<script type="text/javascript"><!--
google_ad_client = "pub-xxxxxxxxxxx";
/* 250x250, created 9/16/11 */
google_ad_slot = "xxxxxxxxxxx";
google_ad_width = 250;
google_ad_height = 250;
//-->
// --&gt;
// --&gt;</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js"></script>

I think the extra // --&gt;
// --&gt; that's being added is not allowing the ads to display correctly. My account has been under review for almost 2 weeks and I believe it's because the code is wrong.

The site is html with css styling. I tried to add it in through css style sheet too by adding a class for the code. That didn't work either. I'm not sure how to keep it from changing.

 

Is your site using a CMS platform?
If not then it wouldn't be an idea to use the CSS stylesheet to add anything like that. However the &gt; may be being added to the code by a setting on your hosting or in your text editor...

which editor are you using to add the code, this is the most likely cause.

 

A "CSS site"?
