PHP Code above DW Template doctype?
I've built a website in a DW Template; the pages are .php. We added a PHP
script, a bit of code that needs to be at the top of the pages (before the
doctype, or anything else, for that matter), which works fine in the Template
-- except for the couple of pages that need slightly different script at the
top; when we update the Template it rewrites the page-top script in those two
pages.
I'd thought of adding an editable region above the <head>, but I'm not sure
how DW might treat an editable region above the <head> and it would mean
comment tags as the first item on the page rather than the PHP script.
Of course, I can manually edit the couple of pages (or detach them from the
Template), but I'd far prefer to allow DW to update the Template without
touching this code. Is there some way around this, so that the DW Template
ignores the code above, say, the doctype?
Thanks in advance.

This is not the default behavior of templates. By default the regions above> pages.
<html> and below </html> are treated as editable regions. Changes that you
make to the template will never propagate that code, hence will never
overwrite that region. The overwriting can ONLY occur if you change from
the default treatment to an optional treatment of those regions by including
the line -
<!-- TemplateInfo codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="true" -->
in the head region of the template page. This tells DW to consider the
region outside of <html> as if it were non-editable, and therefore changes
there WILL propagate. In addition, because this region is now non-editable,
when a child page with unique content in that region is updated by the
template, that unique content will be erased.
Did you do this?

Thanks, Murray. I was hoping you'd show up. :)
<!-- TemplateInfo codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="true" -->
Yes, that's what it says. Thanks for explaining.
If I can find a (correct) way to switch it to false, I'll just have to
manually add the php coding to the top, but that would be preferable to
hand-editing the two pages every time we do a template update.

Ah, I was able to do it simply by editing that comment in the Template. How easy was that?!!
You da man, Murray. :)

Actually, just remove that line altogether from the template page. That
will give you the default behavior, which is FALSE.
