Pages locked.
I built my website several years ago using Dreamweaver 4. I just got a new
Vista machine and have been upgrading my software. I transferred my website
local file folder to the new machine but when I open a page in DWCS3 I could
not edit any pages. In split and in code view I have been able to edit but not
in design view. I get some warning that the changes will be saved but will be
lost with a template up date. It seems to me that there is something wrong and
any pagecreated but the template is no longer editable in design view. The
"content" areas show up but are not editible in design view. Same with the
original template.

Re: Pages locked.
Sounds like a code syntax problem.
Url address to an example page?

Re: Pages locked.
It is quite possible I may have syntax errors. I do not do this for a living I
just "wing it" when I need it. However, I still can't understated why if I open
the page in DW 4 on my old machine I can edit, but on the new one with DWCS3
the page and the template is locked. I tried starting fresh and copying and
pasting code from the old page. That worked to some extent. Still, I have not
done any of this for some time so I'm stumbling.

here is the link to my page. http://www.calypsotheatrical.com/

Re: Pages locked.
DW4 does not recognize DWCS3 template syntax.

Re: Pages locked.
But - your page and its code are seriously horked.

<html><!-- #BeginTemplate "/Templates/calypsotheatrical_1.dwt" -->
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<!-- InstanceBegin template="/Templates/calypsotheatrical_1.dwt"
codeOutsideHTMLIsLocked="false" -->
<Head>
<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="doctitle" -->
<title>Calypso Theatrical</title>
<!-- InstanceEndEditable -->
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<link href="style.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script language="javascript1.2" src="swap.js"
type="text/javascript"></script>
<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="head" -->
</Head>
<!-- InstanceEndEditable -->
<script language="JavaScript">
<!--
function MM_reloadPage(init) { //reloads the window if Nav4 resized
if (init==true) with (navigator) {if
((appName=="Netscape")&&(parseInt(appVersion)==4)) {
document.MM_pgW=innerWidth; document.MM_pgH=innerHeight;
onresize=MM_reloadPage; }}
else if (innerWidth!=document.MM_pgW || innerHeight!=document.MM_pgH)
location.reload();
}
MM_reloadPage(true);
// -->

</script>
<body>

DWCS3 has no idea what to do with this page, because its so badly messed up.

Re: Pages locked.
Ok, any suggestions on how to remedy this. If I remember correctly, to build
this page I started with a free template, and edited it in DW4. Since the pages
based on the reworked template worked and updates went fine I assumed I did it
right. I am not really familiar with all the html code. It's why I used DW,
which I thought was kind of a WYSIWYG program.

Any constructive advice would be appreciated.

Thanks

This is a common misconception. You really *do* need to learn html.
