FTP file manager changing my html

Copy linkTweet thisAlerts:
Mar 12.2014

Every time I edit my .html file on FTP file manager and save it, I return to find that it has been modified. For instance, here is the first few lines of code I saved:

<html>
<!– configurable script –>
<script type=”text/javascript”>
theimage = new Array();

and here is what it changed to when I returned to edit.

<html><TABLE border=0 cellSpacing=0 width=”100%” height=”25%” valign=”center” halign=”center”>
<TBODY>

The program completely deleted an entire block of javascript. Why would the file manager edit my html?

@jedaisoulMar 14.2014 — Sorry, I have no idea as to your problem!!! However, I would suggest:

  • 1. Are you writing generic html/css or using a CMS?


  • 2. If you are writing generic code, I would not recommend editing an on-line site this way. I recommend:

    a) Setup an off-line development area, and do your editing/testing there.

    b) Upload files as required.


  • 3. If you are using a CMS, you are restricted by what they support, but I'd still look into working off-line if at all possible.

    Success!
