When I save my template to index.htm, The index coding for the index file should be grayed out and the header should not be editable. That us not happening, I have done this with 4 other templates in the past year and there are no problems. I cannot see any differences in the header/index coding with what I am doing today. Any suggestions? Oh he maximenu2 is OK.

I infer from the post that he is trying to Save Template.dwt as index.html. And that simply won't work.

You don't. That's not how to use DW Templates.

DWT files are used to spawn new CHILD pages.

Go to File > New > Site Templates. Select your site and Template.

Hit Create button. See screenshot.

Save newly created child page as index.html (Ctrl/Cmd+S).
