I'm setting up DFP to display ads and I have an ad tag (Javascript) from adtechus.com. The tag looks like this:

<script src="http://adserver.adtechus.com/?adrawdata/1.0/1111/11111/0/0/ADTECH;loc=100;noperf=1;"></script>

When I paste that tag into DFP, I get an error message saying it does't recognize the tag format:

enter image description here

...and, more importantly, my ad isn't showing on the page. DFP seems to be taking my adtechus ad tag regardless and working with it, despite the error message. But could that be the reason my ad isn't showing? And how can I fix it?
