# Header.php won't update

 * Hi, Am trying to add a little script to my header.php file, but it won’t update.
   Even if I simply duplicate some script that is already there, or just add some
   empty script, it won’t update. Nothing works. Whenever we hit ‘Update’ it goes
   to:
 * “I can’t seem to find what you think you’re looking for. What the heck just happened?”(
   Error 404 page).
 * The site is: AamcoCovinaAndMonrovia.com
 * Any ideas?
    Thanks…

 * Have you tried updating the file via FTP?
    It might be easier that way, plus 
   you’ll get the added benefit of being able to make a backup.
