I have been trying to figure out how to add html code into a page on SiteBuilder.

I want to add some a simple subscribe form from AWeber (my autoresponder service) to a web page in Site Builder.

I can't find a way to do this.

I tried to create a new form for this purpose but in order for this to work - it must come from the sender's email address.

Is there an easy way to drop some html code into a web page for this purpose?

I can certainly think of other instances where I would like to be able to do this.

And I have paid for the SiteBuilder upgrade if that makes a difference.

Help!

I am stuck!

Hi dan - to add any html code what I do is this - I go ino the Edit Layout Tab and create a new text box - I move this box to any claer spot in the current layout of my page, and make it a bit about a third of the size of the standard rectangular text box that has opened up. I also fill the box with one of the colours - doesn't matter which as this is a temporary measure so that I can find it on the edit text page.

I then choose the Edit Text Tab - I select and copy the html code from my Notepad (or whereever you store your code) - on the Edit Text page I make sure that tye cursor is positioned in the new text box and simply paste.

The size of the box will probably need adjusting - go back to the Edit Layout tab to do this and change the colour, position the box etc.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for taking the time to reply to my posting. I didn't realize you had replied since I didn't get an email notification.

What I was trying to do was to add an html subscribe form from my AWeber account.

I was told by support that I would have to do this via an external page. SO that is what I did and it is working fine.

FYI

I created a page in SiteBuilder that looked like I wanted.

I published it but hidden.

I pulled the file down into Dreamweaver, made some changes and added the form.

Then I set the redirect to return to a SIteBuilder tahnk you page when they submit the form.

This method works like a champ.

Maybe this can help others.
