any change in header leads to messed up page
When I modify the header-file I loose the layout of the page: the white background disappears and all content is left-aligned. I use Dreamweaver 4.
Has anyone any idea what I'm doing wrong? It's not that I change much: even when I alter the word 'Home' the layout messes up. Or when I change the logo.

might want to try something besides dreamweaver to edit your templates. Never used DW but have heard that it inserts code. the header does not contain the closing table elements nor does it have the closing </body></html> tags. DW may insert some or all of that.
Try using an ascii type editor. there are a few posts on "favorite" software you can search for.

I edit in dreamweaver but do not save the code...
After completing the changes, just copy the html and paste it back in the template online.
No problems, only when you save the file locally.

Try notepad or any simple text editor.

try ConText at http://www.fixedsys.com/context/. At least it is free. And you can download a highlighter for PHP.
But one of the best editors is at http://www.editplus.com. Cost about $30 but is well worth it.

Changing it in notepad works fine for me. It's not that I'm good at programming, but it's good practice to keep the scripts as clean as possible, isn't it.

If it works fine using notepad then continue to use it if possible.Originally posted by StepFenz
