Had a site up for twenty-one years and all of a sudden I cannot update 1/2 the pages because I get and error saying 

 

I looked at line 8 until I was blue in the face!

 

1 <!DOCTYPE HTML>

2 <html id="top" lang="en">

3 <head>

4 <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

5 <!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" -->

6 <title>Fireworks At McKennas On The Bay July 3rd 2012</title>

7 <meta name="description" content="Fireworks At McKennas On Los Amitos Bay In Long Beach California Jujly 2012"/>

8 <meta name="keywords" content="dirJuly4th2012,McKennas,fireworks,Cathey"/>

<!-- #EndEditable -->

 

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="CSS" href="http://lilesnet.com/july4th/styles/july4th.css" media="screen" />

 

There are 100 pages in this site and about 1/2 of them will not update for the same reason???

 

Any help appreciated!

 

Paul

    Your template DWT is malformed.  You can't nest editable regions inside other editable regions.

     

    Here is what a proper DWT should look like:

    <!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="doctitle" -->
<title>Unique Page Title</title>
<!-- TemplateEndEditable -->

<!--Bootstrap CSS-->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/4.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css">

<style>
/**a few custom styles**/

	background: url( https://placeimg.com/1000/900/nature?t=1531616140833) no-repeat center center fixed;
	background-size: cover;
}
.flex-grow { flex: 1; }
.wrapper {text-align:center}
</style>
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" -->

<body class="d-flex flex-column">

    Thank you... One additional questions.  I wanted to add an editable region to the Template but I can't seem to do it?  

     

    My code is:

     

    <!DOCTYPE html>
    <html id="top" lang="en">
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />

     

    <!-- #TemplateBeginEditable name="doctitle" -->
    <title>Place Page Title Here</title>
    <meta name="description" content=""/>
    <meta name="keywords" content="dirjuly4th,"/>
    <!-- #TemplateEndEditable -->


    <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" title="CSS" href="http://lilesnet.com/july4th/styles/july4th.css" media="screen" />
    <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="UniqueStyles" -->
    <!-- TemplateEndEditable -->
    <script>
    <!--
    function ShowSign(){
    url = "/cgi-script/psGuest/psGuest.php?command=sa&gid=3";
    window.open(url,"","width=750,height=500,scrollbars=yes,location=no,status=no,resizable=yes");
    }
    // -->
    <!-- #BeginEditable name="UniqueStyles" -->
    <!-- #EndEditable -->
    </script>
    </head>

    <body>
    <div id="container">
    <div id="masthead">
    <!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="pagetitle" -->
    <h1> Page Title </h1>
    <h3>Quote Of Choice</h3>


    <!-- TemplateEndEditable --> </div>

    <div id="navigation">
    <!--#include virtual="/july4th/navigation-top.txt" -->

    <hr class="divider">
    <!--#include virtual="/july4th/navigation-other-patriotic-sites.txt" -->
    <hr class="divider">
    <!--#include virtual="/july4th/navigation-site.txt" -->
    <hr class="divider">
    <!--#include virtual="/july4th/navigation-yearly.txt" -->

     

     

     

     

    ******** I wanted to add an editable area for UNique Navigation  here*************

    When I try to add it, nothing happens??

    You can't do it because your template is still malformed.  Proper structure is essential. 

     

    Let's try this again...

    <!doctype html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">

<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="doctitle" -->
<title>Unique Page Title</title>
<!-- TemplateEndEditable -->

</style>
/**YOUR CSS GOES HERE**/
<style>
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="head" -->
<!-- TemplateEndEditable -->
</head>

<body>
<!--SITEWIDE CONTENT GOES HERE-->
<header>Header</header>
<nav>Navigation</nav>

<main>
<!-- TemplateBeginEditable name="EditRegionMain" -->
<!--PAGE SPECIFIC CONTENT GOES HERE-->
<!-- TemplateEndEditable --> 
</main>

<footer>
<!--SITEWIDE CONTENT GOES HERE-->
</footer>

</body>
</html>
