Dodgy coding!

ploughman1 · ploughman1

I wonder if anyone can help. I currently have a website - [url]www.grafikhaus.co.uk[/url]
- and I can add text, images etc in Design View, but when I try to hand code,
most of the <body> text is greyed out and will not let me add/delete tags.

I suspect the problem may be the non-editable tags at the end of the <head>
section, but I cannot delete them:

This part is editable:

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>grafikhaus computer training-photoshop</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="web design, internet marketing, sheffield,
south yorkshire, uk, fonts, web site design, graphics, graphic design,
photoshop, dreamweaver, quarkxpress, quark, low-cost, software, adobe,
macromedia">
<meta name="description" content="grafikhaus is a sheffield based company
providing training in Photoshop, Dreamweaver and QuarkXPress">

But after this, right up to the </html> tag is greyed out. The coding
immediately below that shown above begins:


<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
<title>grafikhaus computer training-photoshop</title>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>

Please feel free to mail me at [email]tw747@lycos.com[/email]

Are you using DW? This markup is normal for a page controlled by a DW
template. Can you post a link to the page itself?

Hi Murray,
yes I've used DW 2004.
All the pages on the site are the same (i.e. most code "greyed out") but
here's a link anyway - [url]http://www.grafikhaus/index.htm[/url]

I haven't used templates - just tables.

Woops!

That should have been

[url]www.http://grafikhaus.co.uk/index.htm[/url]

Murray *TMM* · Murray *TMM*

Surely you mean -

[url]http://www.grafikhaus.co.uk/index.htm[/url]

And if you do, the page that loads is ganked. You have this -

<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>grafikhaus computer training-home page</title>
<meta name="keywords" content="web design, internet marketing, sheffield,
south yorkshire, uk, fonts, web site design, graphics, graphic design,
photoshop, dreamweaver, quarkxpress, quark, low-cost, software, adobe,
macromedia">
<meta name="description" content="grafikhaus is a sheffield based company
providing training in Photoshop, Dreamweaver and QuarkXPress">


There is no reference to a template after the doctype (which should be there
on any template child page), and there is no editble region around the
<title> tag (which should be there on any template child page). In
addition, there is that  tag at the bottom of
the snip above, even though there is no corresponding opening tag.
Dreawmweaver is understandably confused by all of this hacking. How did it
get that way? What *should* the template be that controls this page?

Hi Murray, think I've sussed it. I did not set out to create a site in
templates, but seems I was just a bit too keen copying and pasting meta tags
from a similar site, and must have included some template code. Oh well, start
again, but many thanks for your input.
