alan,
i just checked and actually the topbanner include file has its own body tags
:/ if i take them out will it break anything? i haven't really worked with
includes so i don't know if they had a reason to have body tags in the include?
thanks!

And HTML page should have only one set of opening and closing BODY tags. So,
in all of your include files + the parent HTML file, there should only be a
total of one opening BODY tag and one closing BODY tag.

It usually makes the most sense to keep the body tags in the parent HTML
file and not the include files.

Thanks! Yes, their code is a complete mess, I'm trying to convince them to let
me reorganize and use CSS instead of fonts, etc. Looks like they used the body
tag so that the navigation links in the include would use a different color
scheme, so I think I'll force them to at least let me use CSS for that. The
site was created by someone who didn't know HTML, can you tell? But the
extra body tags were the main problem, now at least I can edit the page
content.

Thanks so much!
Erica
