Soory Im disturb you,

Insert the Special code here
</div>
in HTML or Compose mode? thank you
best regards

@ Subagya
It will be better if you put code in HTML view. We can also use compose mode , but I hope you are not getting it properly. I saw your Blog You are getting 2 codeview images. So in HTML view delete one Codeview div. I hope it will work. If you have any problem , Tell me.

Hey Mohamed, how are you doing. Thanks for this great hack...but am having problems using it. Recently i posted a tutorial which includes a code...then i remembered that you have a hack for showing codes like you do here, so i followed your trick...but with no result, nothing showed up...my post will remain on my site for you to check it. What could've i done wrong? or is it because of my website template?
Please i need help.
on August 23, 2008 at 5:54 AM
Hi DanielPK ,
You are not getting this hack working because you are not writing the div section correctly.
In your blog the div section appears like this
<div style="color: rgb(51, 51, 255);">class="codeview">
but it must look like this
<div class="codeview">
your content here
</div>
If you want to apply any color , please apply only in content (wihtout <div class="codeview"> ).
if you still have problem , let me know.

hi Mohamed...sorry for disturbing but..i want to know.......if am going to use the code...am i supposed to add it in "Compose mode" or "HTML mode"?
because the way i did it was:
1- typing text
2- In compose mode i added the code.
result = nothing working?
then i tried it in HTML mode...and the same result.
by the way! am really confused about how did this
by the way...what really surprised me is seeing that extra code in the template source code, i don't even know how it got there?
And i've already sent you an email with my template attached "Regarding the page navigation hack" can i send you my template code....
and i was wondering if i can have the permission of putting your tutorials on my website while linking back to you. Is it possible?
Thank you

Salam Mohamed, how are you doing, hope your enjoying Ramadhan :)
Believe it or not, am still stuck with this hack, no matter how many times i try to implement it just doesn't work, well at least for now i got the "code viewer" but with no code inside it. And i think that this hack works on certain templates which is coded in a certain way, at least that's what i think when i took a look at my friend's blog with this hack working fine, just don't know why its not working.
Can you please check again! i really want this hack to work on my template.
i'll email you the template again on from my email which is:

Subject: Technologypublic's Template & Code view hack.
Thank you very much in advance :)

on April 26, 2009 at 9:33 AM
Thanks Mohamed Rias that's great. If you are putting code in your box, you might also want fixed-space fonts.
To do this just add this line into the codeview style:
font-family: "Monaco","Courier New", "MS Sans Serif", sans-serif, serif;
(Monaco is only on Mac's, but looks great for coding! Lucida Console in Windows also looks good). I put mine
background: black;
color: green;
to give it that 3270 dumb terminal look too. Cute!
