I am making a site and keep running into this issue. When I upload to the host (GoDaddy) this random extra text gets added. I am at a loss as to why this happens.

Here is what I am uploading:

But..

this is what ends up on the site

I have no idea what is happening any advice is appreciated

I'm no fan of GD, they often caused problems and blamed me for them while I was a customer, only to find out there was some server setting, completely under their control, that was the root of my issue.

This one is a little weird though. Is it just duplicating the partial css link and ending </head> tag, or is there more being fouled on upload?

Have you tried any other FTP applications, like the free Filezilla Client, for example?

If the same thing happens on upload there, it would point to GoDaddy having something borked on the server. If it transfers without issue, at least you could get your work uploaded while troubleshooting continues in DW.

So that actually works fine and Dreamweaver works too if I delete the site definition and recreate a new site. It only works for a few uploads though. Very weird.

When was the last time you scanned your entire system for malware?

New Flash! This has nothing to do with Dreamweaver. Your host is adding extra code to your site and corrupting it. Just one more reason to stay away from GoDaddy hosting. I don't know if this is caused by domain name forwarding or some widget they tack on to low cost hosting plans. At any rate, you must contact GoDaddy.

Yes, I think we have been there before, in the past, with this hosting company, or maybe another with a similar reputation, if my memory serves me correctly.

Issue 4-5 is the problem. I am not sure what is happening on the transfer because my source code does not have the extra closing head tag.

Line23, 24 do not exist in my code.

This is exactly what I am uploading to the server.

It is adding things to my code that I have no explanation for?

Open your code in Brackets or some other plain text editor.

What do you see?

Same code as DW

They all look the same to me, DW, VS Code, Brackets, apart from the very first screen shot which as has already been pointed out is something DW injects into your code for live viewing. That however won't get transfered to your server along with the page. So what exactly is it that is incorrect with your code, disregarding the injected code, which only gets used inside DW.

it seems that you are viewing the live code (the one used by DW to render content in live view mode) and not the HTML code of the page itself
so the one that is transferred seems to be correct, the other is only the one generated by DW internally in order to allow both visualization and editing in real time

Yea I only did that because it was giving me an error when I used a screenshot right from dreamweaver.

This is the exact code I am uploading opened in VS Code
