Blogger Problem

An interesting thing is happening to my blog. I signed up to be an affiliate with Doyle's Room and wanted to put an icon in the sidebar of this page so that interested readers could click and quickly sign up with my bonus code.

I have edited the sidebar before as you can tell. I've added the WBPT logo and the Card Clubs Top Site icon without any problems. But whenever I add the code for Doyle's Room or just the words "Click on the above icon to earn a deposit bonus of 25-35% up to $135." the sidebar updates for exactly one viewing and then reverts to an earlier version.

Does Blogger not allow this type of content? I find this hard to believe since similar content exists on other sites that I frequient. Am I tripping over something more technical? If any body has a clue, please fill me in.

Update 1: No, I don't think I have it narrowed down anymore. While I was typing this post, my sidebar reverted back to an earlier style without any of above content in the sidebar. I know because I'm trying to expand the posting area to make it wider and format the sidebar items to be centered in it's columns.

The changes are posting and work once and now sometimes two, three or four times and then reverts back. Aaarrrrrrgggggg. Help.

Update 2: Now it put itself back when I updated this post. Talk about confusing. So now I went back and put Doyle back in the sidebar. If you see Doyle, the new side bar is up, if you see the Card Club icon at the top of the side bar, you're seeing sidebar classic.

Save the graphic on your computer. Then, upload it on a test post. Cut the link for this graphic and place it in your sidebar. Finally, link that graphic to the site you want...

It should work.

Special K is not just for Breakfast anymore.

Peter, Thanks for the suggestion. Unfortunately, I tried it with no change in behavior.
