    Default HELP! Cannot Perform this Action. 60 pages on 8Contributes to edit.

    This is very frustrating. I need some expert help.

    Building a web stie for our County Government.

    I have asked each of the 8 offices to purchase Contribute 4 and my very first
    office is having issues with "you cannot perform this action in this region of
    the page" when she is loading file links or emails links.

    I have read all I can. I have used Contribute 1.0, and 2.0 for years!!!

    [url]http://www.ottawacountygov.com/countyclerk/countyclerk.htm[/url] That's the office
    I'm working with at this point.

    I have changed the Doc type according to Murray's suggestion.
    I have put the editable region INSIDE the content div. It didn't make any
    difference.
    I have Removed a position:relative in the wrapper of the CSS.

    I am testing in Contribute...it lets me add one (1) link BUT ONLY ONE. Then I
    get the error message.

    PLEASE HELP! All 60+ pages are the same basic css, so if I can figure out
    one...

    Thank you. I hope it's something painfully simple!

    Sandy

    Default Re: HELP! Cannot Perform this Action. 60 pages on 8Contributes to edit.

    I have continue to test more options.
    The only way I could get Contribute to accept more than one link was to make
    the entire template editable. NOT A GREAT CHOICE, but I am running out of
    options.

    Please. I could use some help. It may be in my CSS. Sandy

    I found this in an Adobe tech note about Contribute. It says it resolved the
    issue in contribute 2.01. I am in Version 4?!
    Trouble adding content to an editable region
    Some users are reporting that they are not able to add links or other content
    to an editable region of a Template instance. This is a known issue when the
    template is using CSS Positioning (CSS-P) to layout the page. This issue is
    resolved in the Contribute 2.01 update. When the editable region is within a
    positioned layer or element, the error will occur. Specifically, this will
    occur when positioning with 'relative' or 'float' positioning and the
    positioning code is within a locked region.

    The work around for this issue previous to the 2.01 update is as follows:

    Put the entire Div tag within the editable region.
    Use tables for layout.
    Use Absolute positioning for the block level element.

    I finally found the answer, but it seems more like a BUG. Be AWARE!

    I had a very simple Library in the footer of the page across the bottom. Even
    in a purely table format, it did not work. When I released the library, it
    would add multiple links.

    The library menu did not effect the link issue, just the one at the bottom.
    Disappointing.
