Source Code:

This is the source code I originally had published only in my demo webpage. I made this webpage as an "easy to access" listing of the important parts of my original webpage's extended head tag, with meta tags and additional comments on the construction of the PB Advanced Editor document. All the relative HTML code and comments are shown in green text below. I only show you the "extended" <head> tag, meta, style, script, and beginning added custom <body> tag code in this PageBuilder Advanced Editor document.

Please note the added <meta> tags, <style>, and <script> tags I added inside the PageBuilder extended head tag. The style and scripts work correctly. The background gif image for the webpage is from the Netscape website and is defined in the style tag in the head section. The welcome message alert is a javascript function that must be defined in the head tag before it is called in the body tag.

Note: Here I used the <plaintext> tag to disable the html code. If your browser doesn't support this tag, use the Thunderstone Viewer above to see the code.

This is a copy of the code of my modified PageBuilder <head> tag with additional formatting notes on general webpge construction. I typed the code close together just like you have to type code in the PageBuilder text boxes; without returns, unless you want a space to appear in your document. Type your code in a continous line with auto-wrap, as explained in my webpage.

And; if you C&P this code, remember that you may get unwanted spaces, line breaks, returns, and missing or floating angle-brackets (mostly hanging on the end of the previous line) on your HTML tags that just mysteriously happens? Just carefully go thru your "pasted" code, line for line, and remove all extra spaces and returns; and replace or correct any faulty HTML tag code!

Note: I deliberately added a single space between the HTML tags in this source code for easy reading, and to get more evenly balanced auto-wrap softbreaks! It is OK to have single spaces (not returns) between the HTML tags - they get sucked-up when the code is marked-up for display in our browsers! You do not have to remove these spaces unless you want to! Just be sure to remove all spaces between the beginning and ending HTML tag angle-brackets (< >), and use a single space between attributes inside HTML tags!

The replaced table tags must exactly match the blocked tags! Always make sure your table tags are in correct and legal HTML syntax; ie, matched in pairs of required opening and closing tags, in proper sequence, and properly nested with each other and other display formatting tags! If you have table tag syntax errors, your webpage may not be displayed, or will not appear as you intended. WebTV is somewhat lax with HTML syntax; but, the new browsers, especially Netscape, are very sensitive to, and strict, about HTML table tag syntax! Remember: If your have problems with your PageBuilder webpage display, view you page's source code and check all your table tags first!</font><br><br>The above comments assume that you started your webpage with an "Add text" box at the top of your document. However, if you started your webpage with an "Add a heading" box, all you need to replace is a beginning &lt;P&gt; tag and a beginning &lt;H1&gt; tag. I included these comments in the source code above, and made a simple demo webpage to get the source code below, which should be self explanatory. In the source code below, you can see the blocked-out tags and the replaced matching tags, that you must be aware of if you start your webpage with a header box. Here's the demo source code below which explains this procedure. Thanks to my friend Tomasito, aka <a href="mailto:tobeaches@webtv.net">tobeaches@webtv.net</a>, for feedback information on the header box that prompted me to make these revised comments!<br><br><br> <font color="green" style="font-weight: bolder;"> <plaintext> <html> <head> <META NAME="generator" CONTENT="WebTV Page Builder v1.1"> <META NAME="description" CONTENT="Juat a simple temporary test document."> <title>Testing Table Code</title><script> /* begin PB AE - </title> </head> <body bgcolor="silver" text="black" link="blue" alink="red" vlink="#ff00ff"> <P> <H1> end PB AE - */ </script> </head> <body bgcolor="ccccff" text="#green"> <br> <!-- add these tags to replace the blocked tags you see above between the script tags - see explanation below --> <P> <H1>Begin Top Heading Box Test<br> <br> Some text in an "Add heading" text box at the top of the webpage.

Source code viewers gives you the pure source code only, while the validators give you explanatory comments about webpage code syntax! Beginners who really don't understand much HTML, should use the validators and follow the critique comments as a guide to correcting any HTML code errors; while the experts usually prefer the pure source code viewers, to make their own critique and needed corrections.<br><br>This 2002 revision of this webpage is made necessary by the fact that MSN-TV has not upgraded the PageBuilder program since December 1999! I had hoped, that by this time. all our MSN-TV PageBuilder Advanced Editor procedures would be unnecessary! Hopefully, we will soon get a new PageBuilder upgrade which should have several added features, many of which we are currently using with "work-a-rounds" like this PB AE procedure, that will make all the Advanced Editor procedures unnecessary!<br> <br>Stay tuned to the PageBuilder NG's, folks! MSN-TV PageBuilder will eventually be upgraded; but, meanwhile the expert PageBuilders just keep discovering new methods to make PageBuilder better and better. All PageBuilders who post helpful information in the NG's have really made WebTV PageBuilder webpage building an enjoyable experience for us all! Thanks for all your help, folks!<br><br>Since the publication of my original PageBuilder Advanced Editing method using the HTML comment tag method introduced by Uncle Huey, aka h17 (now deceased), Paul Dutton published his "open editor" <a href="http://community-2.webtv.net/PaulWayn/ConquestoverPBv11/">Defeat</a> method; and, I have written tutorials for ten (10) new PB AE methods, listed below.
