Code doesn't "translate" and page doesn't save

[Guest]

I tried posting this opnce, but it didn't show up...hope this doesn't duplicate

I have just started a new website and unlike the others I have done, every time I close this one, no matter what I have done to try to save, it reverts back to the original page that the wizard created saving none of my changes. To explain one step further, while I am working on it, when I check the code, none of my changes are appearing in the code portion. Only the original code created by the wizard is there. I can add images, colors, text...anything, and none it it displays as code.

Hope that makes sense...any ideas?

You can not make changes to the code that the FP webbot generate.

Sorry, perhaps I wasn't clear

The only code that appears at all is what was created by the wizard. If I change a background color or add an image or some text, it appears in the design portion (I can view it in design and even in preview) but none of my changes appear in the code portion. Then, when I save and close, my changes are not saved, it reverts back to just a blank page with a few minor elements that were there as a default

??? Help ???? please

Ok, what is being create by the Wizard?

I could have a blank page and then whatever I add is not recognized as code. But at any rate, the wizard is just doing some shared borders and some basic instructional text. I used the wizard before for other sites and never had a problem....really don't think that's it. I am wondering if there is something I am missing in order to get my changes to translate into code... It is a big problem because I can't close down my program as I know that I will lose everything

Thanks so much!

Can you paste the code for the page into a message here, the before and after?

This is the code both before and after...no matter what I do to the page. So basically, I can add or change anything at all on the page, and I have done a TON to it and the code never changes therefore the changes do not save

Thanks for looking! :

The only issue I see with what you have posted, is the repeating <body> tags, your page must only
have 1 opening <body> tag.
