Existing HTML page manipulation

I understand WYSIWYG Web Builder has a different type of engine than your typical Dreamweaver type of program. However, I did not want to assume that the answer to this was automatically a no. So, is there any way to work with an existing HTML page or some parts of it? I am imagining you could use some code that is in between certain tags and paste that into the HTML box. However, I would love to hear all ideas, methods, and suggestions. Thanks —Phil

I use some code and paste it into the page tags in WYSIWYG. after you publish you can always work with the page generated by WYSIWYG. you just might not want to overwrite it the next time you publish.

First please note WWB is not a HTML Editor it is a HTML Generator. What this means is that no HTML actually exists till you publish. However you can use the Following HTML Object or Page HTML and place in the section you need such as Between <head></head> <body></body> etc etc along with the File Publisher for any external files such as javascript/ jquery. Also note that if you edit the HTML externally with the likes of Notepad++ save it and then reopen with the software to make any changes to the page and save again then any HTML you made externally will get overwritten.
