I was under the impression that the [HEAD] tag in the 'Site Publishing Section' placed things in the upper most part of the website since it's divided into three parts, The Head, The Body & The Footer. However, when I placed a piece of code for the headings, an "H1" tag into this area, it pushed everything down and now appears ABOVE the header area. Have "I" done something wrong or is this the way it's supposed to be...

This is the exact piece of code which was inserted into Head Code box under the 'Site Publishing Settings' section:

[h1 style="font:20px 'Verdana', Helvetica, sans-serif;text-align:center;color:#000000"]Skipper Clipper Marketing & Design LLC[/h1]

Had to edit this from the exact code because the forum interprets the HTML code. < & > have been replaced with [ & ]

The styles go in the head code box and they need to be wrapped in style tags like this…

<style type="text/css">
styles go here
</style>

The HTML needs to go in an HTML Snippet like this…

<h1>Heading Text</h1>

More info here and also how to use an inline style…

It's a lot easier using one of the widgets shown here or the one on this page if you want to use Google hosted fonts.

I tried that, and everything on the page disappears. It's just blank with the background color. I'm going to buy your basic widgets set, but I need to get comfortable enough with how this "Header/Footer pasting code" concept works before I do, as I see on your site there's even more instruction on how to insert code for the widgets. I'm not a technical person and I want to make sure that I'm not adding insult to injury with buying widgets on top of this already limiting application. Even formatting text into a paragraph the way I want takes hours. If I can find everything's limitations in the software and create workarounds which are easier than publishing with iWeb then going in on the back end and manipulating code to get the results I want, I'll be happy with this setup, but as it is, it's just frustrating me to no end with complications.

So what you're saying is even by dragging an HTML snippet into the Head area of the document, will not add it to the [Head] section of the code, you have to deal with adding style sheets to the Head Code box area, as well. I viewed the source code after publishing and the [H1] code was still showing up under the [BODY] section, then when I pasted it into the Head Code box in the 'Site Publishing Settings' section it showed up above the HEAD section. Pasting the style sheet section of your website on the right side of the page found here, http://everwebcodebox.com/layout/headings.html made everything but the background color disappear.

I think you may be confusing Head and Header which are completely different and also get confused with headings!

This page shows where to insert the various codes…

http://everwebcodebox.com/code/code-insertion.html

… and this one will help you understand the components of the basic HTML doc and the names for the items in it…

http://everwebcodebox.com/code/code-insertion.html

You don't need to know any of this but it will certainly help to understand how a web page is constructed and that it is not possible to drag an HTML Snippet into the Head of the doc since it can't be seen either in EverWeb or in the published site.

The HTML Headings widget doesn't require you to insert any code - it does it all for you.

The instructions in the EverWeb Codebox site are for more advanced users who don't need the assistance of the widgets and who have either read, or already know, the info contained in the Code section.

So, is the code from this page, supposed to be entered into the 'HEAD CODE' section of the 'Site Publishing Settings' in order to control font style, sizes, & color? http://everwebcodebox.com/layout/headings.html
