Subscribe RSSI went this evening to copy a specific part of the AdSense javascript to add to the current AdSense script I already had on a page. The script I was currently using was using a custom color set which I did not have as a saved palette, which usually isn’t a big deal.
However, I just wanted to add the
google_ad_type = “text_image”; line to test image ads on one specific part of one site. However, when I clicked inside the box, it automatically highlighted the entire javascript, and I could not select just the one line I needed to add.
A new notation was also added to the page:
Click anywhere in this box to select all code.
Yes, I realize why it is there (to remind people to cut and paste the entire javascript without modification). But it is a minor inconvenience for those of us that change little things for testing.
Hasn’t it always been like this?
No, definitely wasn’t like this before. I often switched channels, and would only cut and paste the channel line from the control panel. This is the first time I noticed that it would no longer allow me to highlight and copy specific lines as opposed to the entire thing.
That’s what notepad is for
