    Default Edit Page woes

    After pressing "Edit Page", the webpage is rendered dramatically different --
    showing only the header & footer, none of the middle content. The page renders
    very well in Contribute (version 2 & 3, Mac and PC), but gets screwy only when
    you try to edit it. Any ideas why this could happen?

    Here is an example of one of the misbehabing webpages:

    Thanks,

    will need to edit the source code-

    line 17, center with no /center

    line 134, unneeded duplicate redundant </td>

    If you are editing in Dreamweaver, look for the yellow highlighted tags in
    code view.

    Thanks, Alan, for looking at my code. After further painful review, I've found
    even more errors! I code my HTML free-style without the help of Dreamweaver,
    etc. I've cleaned up my code & removed a "virtual include" line.... that seems
    to fix things.

    I guess the Contribute browser (and other browsers) are very forgiving of
    imperfect HTML, but that forgiveness goes away in edit mode.
