What do you mean use for FTP? I just drag the site onto the FTP files and yes they look the same. all that's happening is the tags won't work.

Really, can I get some sort of hall of fame for being the guy with the most problems?For some reason, my tags WON'T WORK! When I work on my site, I edit it in word pad (all tags are correct), then I delete the indextemplate.html that is in the FTP file, then drag my indextemplate.html into the FTP file and update. The stupid tags won't work! Why is this?My link is: <A HREF="http://killintimewithtftd.keenspace.com/" TARGET=_blank>http://killintimewithtftd.keenspace.com/</A>

Seven3-go to the link he posted. The file isn't
getting corrupted, it doesn't look like.
It really looks like the tags just got
un-replaced.------------------

You still haven't told us what you're using for ftp.When you save your files in wordpad, how do you do it, exactly?
After you save your pages, open them up again, do they still look the same?
After you upload your pages into your FTP account, download them again, do they still look the same?------------------

BJ, yeah, I've seen it. I've also seen the indextemplate that was on his former site - the code was full of spaces; the index code had them removed, but didn't resolve the tags.Nick, you're using IE to upload your files?! You really shouldn't, browsers are good at corrupting your files, almost as good as they are at interpreting HTML code since that's all they're built for. Try a propper FTP program like <a href="http://www.smartftp.com">Smart FTP</a>.The tags do work; I've just uploaded a basic indextemplate onto the <a href=http://thelspshow.keenspace.com/>The LSP show</a> and it's all good. <IMG SRC="http://www.keenspace.com/forums/smile.gif">------------------
