Contribute not letting a template to be used for newpages because of error
I'm building a website with heavy usage of SSI's, since some of my tags are
being opened in the main file but are closed in includes (my head tag being
closed in a header SSI after being opened in the main file) Dreamweaver warns
me of an error when saving the template, and Contribute refuses to let me use
this template to create new pages based on the error it finds. Is there a way
to circumvent this as the error is not an error but part of the design which is
only seen in part by Contribute since it does not deal with my includes?

to be able to use Contribute with this, you'll need to edit the template and
change what's in the includes.
the head and body tags must be in the template and the child html file, not
in an include. Contribute/Dreamweaver use them to figure out where in the
document the cursor is. If they can't find them properly matched, the apps
throw error messages. Contribute will refuse to edit them- Dreamweaver
should pop an error when trying to update the pages also.
rough sketch-
doctype
<html>
<head>
can use include here, or linked .js files
</head>
<body>
can now use includes, but best if any tags opened in the include are closed
in it also, such as <table>
</body>
</html>
