where do i put the <head> tag here?

Normally before the meta tags. However without seeing what is being included with top.php it's hard to be certain.

Hi,

Thanks for the answer, i have enclosed the "top" page, perhaps this enlightens you....

If you added it as an attachment I cannot see it. Perhaps try uploading it again or copying and pasting the contents of top.php into CODE tags and reposting.

The head tag is being included in top.php. You shouldn't need to add it at all.

**marc goyvaerts** · Apr 25 '11, 03:56 PM

Yeah, but when i insert it like that it ends above the template instead of in the template, look here:

Check your footer.php file. It looks likes you have included an extra header in there as well as a body and doctype.

You've got me lost here! Can you take a look at it and give me a few pointers?

Thx in advance!!

Okay.

Your main template includes two other templates. One for the top of the page and one for the footer. In the footer there is a duplicate html, head, and body tag as well as a doctype.

Lines 34-42 in your footer.php are the duplicate lines.

Removing them should solve your issue. As always when making changes make sure you backup your original file.

Here's the snippet to look for.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta name="generator" content=
"HTML Tidy for Windows (vers 14 February 2006), see www.w3.org" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>

Hello,

Found the snippet, removed it but to no avail, the snippet above was inserted as you can see by accident thanks to my validator....

Marc,

**JKing** · Apr 25 '11, 06:39 PM

What do you mean by to no avail?

Removing the snippet from the footer has removed the duplicate head tag.

I am no longer certain what your question is or what issue you are trying to solve...

**marc goyvaerts** · Apr 25 '11, 08:52 PM

It didn't resolved the issue i am having with the page i am trying to fix...

Sorry,

After closer inspection of the page I see you have a center aligned layout far below all the info and date for the page. I am right in assuming that the problem is your content(the map and the date) is not inside your page?

If this is the case you need to modify the first template you posted.

You need to move line 49 to inside your main div(around line 61).
This is the line in question:

Code:

<?php print $BNLWN_MAP; print $BNLWN_TABLE; ?>

This is the code with the line moved:

Yes!!

That finally did the trick! Thank you so much for helping me out with this! I still have a few pages who need some editing because they are not totally right, i would be very grateful if you would help me out with these too?

Marc,
PS, the good page is on http://www.akker.be/car/wxbenelux.php

**JKing** · Apr 26 '11, 03:45 PM

Looks good.

If you have separate issues on other pages, you should start a different thread clearly outlining the issue and either myself or another user will help you out.
