What if my web editor is altering my code?
WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) web-editing
programs will sometimes alter generated link code after you
paste it into your page. This can lead to unexpected and
sometimes negative results.
You can use the following procedure to ensure link integrity
no matter which web editor you use:
1.Once you have finished designing/editing the page, close
your web editor.
2.Open the HTML source file of the associated page with a
text-editor (e.g., Notepad).
3.Add the link code.
4.Edit the link with your Username and URL of the banner's
location on your server.
5.Upload/publish the page before opening it again in your
web editor.

Microsoft FrontPage 2.0/2000
If you are pasting links from HeySportsFans into
Microsoft FrontPage 2.0/2000, you may experience
difficulties because FrontPage encodes certain characters
(e.g., ampersands) contained in the link code. You can avoid
this problem in one of two ways.
Option #1:
1.Open the page you want to edit with FrontPage.
2.Choose HTML Markup from the Insert menu.
A dialog box appears.
3.Paste the link from HeySportsFans into the dialog box.
4.Edit the link with your Username and URL of the banner's
location on your server.
5.Click OK. An icon will represent where the link will
appear on the web page.
6.Save and upload the page.
NOTE: If you add links this way, they will not appear in the
FrontPage editor and will only appear after you
preview/publish.
Option #2 (this option is not available for FrontPage
Express users):
1.Open the FrontPage editor and the page you want to
edit.
2.Click the HTML tab at the bottom of the page. This lets
you modify the HTML source code directly; however, FrontPage
will check the HTML you enter and may encode it.
3.In order to avoid the encoding problem, add the code using
the format below:
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan ---->
Add your link HTML here
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan ---->
4.Edit the link with your Username and URL of the banner's
location on your server.
5.Save your web page.
If you are using FrontPage Express, you can modify the HTML
directly:
1.Open the page you want to edit with FrontPage Express.
2.Choose HTML from the View menu. This lets you modify the
HTML directly; however, FrontPage will check the HTML you
enter and may encode it.
3.In order to stop FrontPage Express from encoding the
generated code, add it using the format displayed below:
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" startspan ---->
Add your link HTML here
<!-- webbot bot="HTMLMarkup" endspan ---->
4.Edit the link with your Username and URL of the banner's
location on your server.
5.Save and upload the page.
NOTE: If you paste links this way, they will appear in
FrontPage editor.
Microsoft Word 97/2000

link:
NOTE: In Word, Web Page Authoring is not installed when you
