    First make sure the code is in fact working. Paste the code exactly as it's provided into a completely blank page, in between the <bodhy> and </body> tags. If that shows up, then we know it's working and can move onto the next step. If not there's a fault in the code or you're missing something out.

    I always put my code in a table cell, and put comments around it so that I know where it is. Further more, I use an include to enter it into the site, that way I know it's the right code, and it cuts down on mistakes. Take a look at www.patwanet.co.uk and look at the source. You see where the included file is? It's where the <head> and <body> tags repeat themselves. That page is actually an .shtml file, and I'm using the <!--#include virtual=""--> syntax to include the code. The included file is a standard .html file with the code in it (as I mentioned above for your 'test') and wrapped in a table.

    Hope this help.

    The only reason I advised you to use an include is that I was having problems with the ads not showing up - they would show at the top but not at the bottom. Using the include solved the problem, how and why i don't know, Google don't either, maybe it was a syntax issue between Windows and Unix or something crazy like that.

    For starters your page layout is incorrectly coded. Where is your <Body> tag to indicate the startn of the body copy of the page. You also have no closed </head>.

    You should have at least two sections to every page, the Header which is indicated by <head> and closed by </head>. This includes your Doctype, Page Title, Meta Tags etc. After the closed Header tag then you should have your body tages - <body> and closed </body>. This section has all your visible text etc. Try doing this and putting the adsense code into the body of the page. Should work.

    By include we mean a document which is physically separate from the main webpage but which appears in it by means of an include statement. You're 'including' the contents of this second document into your web page.

    This is beneficial as it avoids repetition. If you use the same code on many pages, such as your Google code, you don't have to keep copying and pasting the whole code, you just include the one document into each page. It also means that if you ever want to change the code, you only change it in that one document and it's changed in every web page where it's included.

    This is the technique which is used with navigation bars on big websites, it's the same bar on each page, but the code for the bar is not copied on each page, it's just written in one document and an include statement imports it into the pages. Then, if say you wanted to add a link to the navigation bar, you'd just add that link to the separate document containing just the bar, and it would automatically appear on all the pages.

    Have a look at PHP includes in Google, if you're using shtml pages and you've got access to your .htaccess file in your website's directory, you can use shtml virtual includes as well. there are other types of includes too, just depends on what code base you're using. Renaming your pages from .html to .shtml is probably the easiest, then add a line into your .htaccess file so the webserver recognises the pages and use the virtual include statement to bring your Google code into the main pages of your site.
