The file contains quite a few code errors.   Namely duplicate IDs.

In addition to what Jon has asked.

Are you trying to edit the file directly on the remote server?

If you are, then Dw does have a problem if a site is not defined, AND/OR the files are not on the users computers drive Often causing Dw to crash or freeze.

What OS are you using?
What version of DW?

That page has quite a few structural errors in the html that could be causing DW to choke.
Is that the only page that crashes DW consistently?


Are you receiving any specific error when the program crashes?
What do your crash logs say?
