Attempt #4 Leads to Burning Obsession with particularities of HTML

OK, experienced bloggers. Trying to create a blogroll. Must paste HTML code into template to do so. Blogrolling gives me the code, but when I paste the code into the template the title of my blogroll does not show up in the sidebar. Any tips? Keep in mind that I am working on an ancient Mac.

Excuse the extreme geekiness of my question. Must immerse myself in all things technical in order to avoid desire to smoke.
