Does anyone see a problem with this code? It works fine online and it doesn't cause me any trouble while I am modifying the data on the page nor when I upload any changes. However; if I click "Document/Document Properties" HTML Editor immediatly locks up and I get that ever lovin' "Not Responding" message.
The DOCTYPE was created by an earlier version of CC HTML Editor.

It's used on this site: http://www.s-a-m-s.org/contact.htm

Any ideas?

On the second line you have to take out "<html>". You have already declared it in the first line.

Don't think that is related to your computer having problems though, sounds more like your computer than the software. Have you tried to re-install the editor?
The philosopher has not done philosophy until he has acted upon the mere conviction of his idea; for proof of the theory is in the act, not the idea.

Hi Philosopher;

I thought of that but I was able to see the Document properties on several other pages with no difficulties, so I'm not sure what was causing it. I copied the code from the <body> tag thru the end and inserted it into a new page and it works fine and I can view the page properties with no trouble , so this is sort of confusing.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
