    Text tail

    well I'm doing this small website and I put this script to take geocitie's add out, but when I want to put a text tail (text that follows the mouse around the screen) the add shows up and the text tail doesnt work... otherwhise my script works good...

    here is my script:
    </BODY>
    </HTML>
    <NOSCRIPT>
    <!--
    <!--geoguide-->
    -->
    </NOSCRIPT>
    <NOSCRIPT>
    <NOSCRIPT>
    <NOSCRIPT>
    <script>
    </

    what can I do for my text tail to work

    heh.. I don't know, Im using pagebuilder, but I guess you can view source... so here is the website: click on the middle picture and once on the second page (yellow and black background) the add will appear and there will be no text tail (which is not how I want it, I want no add and I DO want a text tail).

    I think what you should do is open the HTML editor (not pagebuilder) and move this to the end:
    <NOSCRIPT>
    <!--
    <!--geoguide-->
    -->
    </NOSCRIPT>

    And I mean end, after </html>

    will it work if I view-source save as .html file then upload them instead of the other pages I already have ? (instead of using HTML editor)

    No you shoudn't have to remove other scripts, yes that should work.
    The thing is, when I used Geocities, I didn't know of that, so I had to rename all my .html to .txt and redo all the links. This way, IE would convert the .txt files to HTML output but Geocities could not add their adverts onto the end.
    Anyway, now I use www.freewebpage.org (yourname.freewebpage.org)
    there you get 150 MGb
    and a ftp account
    and since they're quite new, almost no names are taken.
    only bad thing is that all files must be smaller than .9MGb
    There they ahve add on top of page, but you can cover it up with a DIV with a high Z-index.

    doesnt work, if you view source on the website, and you look at the bottom, you'll see the code for the publicity in the right corner. If I just take that code out, it should work... but geocities just automatically adds that code back. so when I put your script, geocities just automatically adds the "publicity" code in, a SECOND time, so the script only has effect on the first "publicity" code and the publicity still appears....

    Then it might be hat geocidites have found a way around you using that code. Maybe it just doesn't work any more.
