Every time I edit a particular page, a bit of javascript myseteriously  
shows up when I save it. After that, the page does not lie correctly,  
and the items at the end of the list are covered over by elements from  
the stylesheet. The script is as follows:

I am not an html/css coder. I am confined to the editor provided by our  
web provider. After this page is trashed, I can never edit it again.  
I’ve copied the page and even re-written it from scratch, and the same  
thing happens. I figured there has to be something in the last few  
lines. Any help would be greatly appreciated. The web provider just  
tells me to “stop putting java script into my pages.” Since I wouldn’t  
know javascript if I fell over it, I take this message to mean that I am  
on my own with this one. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks  
in advance.

Well I don’t see anything wrong with that bit of HTML, so the problem  
could  
stem from a lot of places. It sounds like cross site scripting of some  
sort,  
but it’s hard to tell just from the description. It could be a bug with  
the  
web app. Tell the developers to look into it, as there’s nothing wrong  
with  
what you’re inputting.
