Hi,

Any idea what mighe be going wrong when I try to insert Family Echo HTML into a weebly website.

https://www.greatlinfordhistory.co.uk/Uthwatt-Family-Tree.html

Weebly's editor has an option to insert external code, and I've had it working before with HTML of my own, and content from other providers.

I've also checked in a number of browsers with the same problem exhibiting.

So it's something clashing with Weebly.

I have an idea it might be that the code from Family Echo contains Javascript, and that I need to remove this from the embed, place the javascript elsewhere in the site code, and call it from the embed page - pushing my confidence levels on coding.

Hoping someone else with a weebly site has solved this.

Many thanks.

John

This is just a guess, but after reading a little bit about how Weebly works, I suspect that you will need to create a custom header type and put the CSS and Javascript in that header, then use that header type on a page with the rest of the HTML generated by Family Echo. This is the information I was looking at: https://community.weebly.com/t5/Site-Editor/How-to-run-a-JavaScript-program-on-a-Weebly-website/m-p/190779#M36397
