HTML - editing code within <!-- InstanceEndEditable -->

Windows 7 32-bit Dreamweaver 8

I am new to HTML & Dreamweaver.

I am using Dreamweaver to edit a website originally put together by someone else.

On each website page is some footer code. I need to edit this code and indeed can do it on every page except one - which is greyed out and i can't edit it?

Is there some way i can edit this co开发者_高级运维de? I do not really understand why it is greyed out only on this page? My HTML is very limited and i am currently learning.

The difference between the page i can't edit and the others seems to be the InstanceEndEditable and InstanceEnd parts

Any advice greatly appreciated

Here is the code i cannot edit...(code preview looks a bit odd hope it's visible - i've had to remove some of the hyperlinks in it as i have less than 10 posts here)

   <!-- InstanceEndEditable -->
        </div>
<!--$$/content$$-->        
            <p>&nbsp;</p>
            <p>&nbsp;</p>
            <p>&nbsp;</p>
        </td>
      </tr>
    </table>
</div>
<div class="Footer">
  <p class="White">Policy</a>| 
  <p class="White"> 
  <div id="simplegallery2" style="text-align:center; width:65px; height:39px; margin:0 auto;"></div>

You can't edit code outside of the <!--InstanceEndEditable--> sections. You have to modify this from the original template (dwt file). If you want, you can go in a text editor and change it outside of Dreamweaver, but if the DWT file ever gets updated (not a concern if you do not have the DWT file), the footer will be replaced.

The location of the DWT file is often listed at the very beginning of the document. Scroll to the top and you will see a bunch of dreamweaver tags that list information on the template.

I got it guys finally. do this.

Your page is apparently linked to a template. If you no longer want to use the template, you can use the Dreamweaver command(in the top bar) Modify/Templates/Detach from Template to unlock the page.

got this method from this page.

there is one more solution for that..

1st copy and paste the full code in Notepad.. after that skip <!--InstanceEndEditable--> this part and paste rest of the code in DW..

then you will be able to edit that code..

You can´t edit that code directly because it's a template. You must edit the template in order to edit that area. Look in your Templates folder the corresponding template for this page.

Second way: edit that code outside Dreamweaver, but be aware that any change applied to the template (the .dwt file) will not affect this page anymore.
