Help with Aweber Code in CSS Landing Page

Kevingators · 10-29-2009, 09:52 AM

I got a preformatted CSS template to use as a squeeze page for email opt-ins.

There was no Aweber code on the page to begin with, so I had to go in an add the form code.

When I pasted in the first line of the Aweber code which is:

<form method="post" action="http://www.aweber.com/scripts/addlead.pl">

it made a space in the page and showed all the background color of the page.

I tried changing the height of the page and it didn't help.

Does anybody know how to correct this problem?

thx,
Kevin

Did you try putting in the whole code? All the way do the "</form>"?

It's incomplete if you just put in the first line and won't display properly.

I'm not sure why you'd just paste the first line of the code instead of all of the code. I will be recording some video tutorials tomorrow about adding an optin form to squeeze page templates. If you want to check them out once they're online just PM me so that I can send you the link.

good call, source47!
You need to put in the complete form code, from the opening form to the closing form tags.

My guess is, however, is that you have not put the optin graphics in the background.
That's a common cause of the problem you describe.

Let me know if I can help you further.
