    Hi

    icontact is one of the many email marketing options available for those who want to build email marketing campaigns etc .Most ot the services alos allow you to build useful online forms etc .

    I am trying out iContact and the online form generator provided the following code to cut an paste on the site :

    ++++++++ original code +++++++++++++++++

    <style>
    #SignUp .signupframe {
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    background: #ffffff;
    color: #226699;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    }
    </style>
    <script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://app.icontact.com/icp/loadsignup.php/form.js?c=296987&l=71860&f=7600″>
    </script>

    +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

    So what I did was to make a proper html page ie

    +++++++++++ html sign up page ++++++++++++++++==

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC “-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN” “http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd”>
    <HTML>
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Sign Up</TITLE>
    <LINK REV=”made” HREF=”mailto:”>
    <META NAME=”generator” CONTENT=”NoteTab Light 5.7″>
    <META NAME=”author” CONTENT=””>
    <META NAME=”description” CONTENT=””>
    <META NAME=”keywords” CONTENT=””>
    </HEAD>

    <BODY BGCOLOR=”#FFFFFF” TEXT=”#000000″ LINK=”#0000FF” VLINK=”#800080″ ALINK=”#FF0000″>

    <H1>Sign Up</H1>

    <style>
    #SignUp .signupframe {
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    background: #ffffff;
    color: #226699;
    font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
    }
    </style>
    <script type=”text/javascript” src=”http://app.icontact.com/icp/loadsignup.php/form.js?c=296987&l=71860&f=7600″>
    </script>

    <HR>
    <P><SMALL>Created on … July 23, 2008</SMALL></P>
    </BODY>

    I tried pasting this as an html code and created a new page in Joomla 1.015

    However, when I preview etc …I just see the same code . No form etc

    However, when I read this code in an html file and view it in a browser..I get the sign up form etc .

    ———-

    I am running Joomla 1.015 under WAMP in a localhost environment.

    What was the problem ?

    Hi 2Patrick. I had the same problem (although using Joomla 1.5.3).

    What I had to do, was log into Admin, go to ‘Global Settings’ and turn the default text editor off (select “Editor – No Editor). This is how it looked in Joomla 1.5.3:

    You then paste the code into your article and save it. This should then work when you publish.

    One important thing … once it’s done, switch back to your ‘normal’ default text editor (TinyMCE in my case) immediately!!

    I hope you can find a similar method to this in Joomla 1.0!

    Good luck!
    Chris
