I know there's been a lot of posts with people asking how you replace text in your xanga like from 'Name:' to 'call me:' or something like that. I've cut and pasted the code in my website stats a million times and it still doesn't work. Help me!

Here's the code i pasted in my look and feel, website stats:

<!-- begin code provided by createblog.com -->
<script type="text/javascript">
//
// &copy; EasterEgg, http://www.xanga.com/easteregg
//
// For use at Xanga only.
//
// This script replaces any given word or text fragment with
// whatever you want: new words and fragments, or even HTML!
//
// Actually it's pretty simple: add the words or fragments you
// wish to replace to the array "oldWords" (each word placed
// between double quotation marks, and separated by colons as you
// can see below) and add their replacements to the array "newWords",
// at the same position as the original words in "oldWords".
// The example is pretty self-explaining.
//
// The script is case sensitive, meaning that if you add "something"
// to "oldWords" array it will not recognize "SOMETHING", or "SoMetHInG".
//
// You can adjust the existing arrays in this code as you see fit,
// as long as both arrays keep the same size (same amount of words
// in both arrays), otherwise a script error will occur.
//
// Copy this entire code and paste in the webstats box at your
// Look and Feel page.
//
// You're free to use this script as long as this comment remains intact,
// and as long you won't use it to cripple the comments of your visitors;
// after all, no one likes his/her words getting twisted...
//
function replaceWords()
{
// ***add the words or fragments you wish to replace below
var oldWords = new Array(
"Subscriptions",
"email it",
"My Blogrings",
"Posting Calendar",
"Name:",
"Birthday:",
"Gender:",
"State:",
"Interests:",
"Website",
"Member since:");

// *** add the replacing words or fragments below
var newWords = new Array(
"add me",
"inbox",
"my hideouts",
"postmarked",
"call me:",
"introduced:",
"i am:",
"living in:",
"i like:",
"site",
"here since:");

allTableData = document.getElementsByTagName('td');
allTableHeaders = document.getElementsByTagName('th');

var collections = new Array(allTableData,allTableHeaders);

for (var k = 0; k < collections.length; ++k )
{
for (var i = 0; i < collections[k].length; ++i )
{
if (collections[k][i].innerHTML.indexOf('TABLE') == -1)
{
for ( var n = 0; n < oldWords.length; ++n )
{
var indx = collections[k][i].innerHTML.indexOf(oldWords[n])
while (indx != -1)
{
var replacement = '';
indx = collections[k][i].innerHTML.indexOf(oldWords[n]);
replacement = collections[k][i].innerHTML.replace(oldWords[n], newWords[n]);
if(navigator.userAgent.toLowerCase().indexOf('compatible')>0){collections[k][i].innerHTML=replacement;//please use supported code at http://help.xanga.com/codes.htm
}
break;
}
}
}
}
}
}
replaceWords();
</script>
