There is the > missing (but I think you know that).
So does it delete it or something like that?

Are you sure you closed the tag? It doesn't happen on the screennames section.

When i look under the file in Windows through notepad i see this...

Code: Select all

<ilayer id="countupnsmain" width=&{countupwidth}; height=&{countupheight}; bgColor=&{countupbgcolor}; visibility=hide><layer id="countupnssub" width=&{countupwidth}; height=&{countupheight}; left=0 top=0></layer></ilayer>

<br></center>
</body>
</html>
When i look under the home.html's source on the site i see this...

Code: Select all

<ilayer id="countupnsmain" width=&{countupwidth}; height=&{countupheight}; bgColor=&{countupbgcolor}; visibility=hide><layer id="countupnssub" width=&{countupwidth}; height=&{countupheight}; left=0 top=0></layer></ilayer>

<br></center>

Try removing </html The page should still work without it. Or try putting >> after </html. Mabye it only deletes one >.

how about sharing the solution here too?

it looked like it was deleting the last character.. perhaps you could add a couple of newlines at the end.

i opened up PuTTY and typed in for example

joe home.html

then i went to the last line and it said </html@ and i changed it there to the > and went to save...and it was fixed.

Is that a patat.org problem or an Excel problem?

It acutally worked with Excel's but not with the notepad's ones...i had to use a Luinx text editor to fix it.
