I'm trying to add a leftpane to an existing skin, but keep getting this error: 

I've researched this error & understand it's probably something simple like a missing space or ending bracket, but I just cant find it!  Ugh!  Any help is much appreciated.  Thanks!


Here's my code:

Hello,

for code, can you zip it up and attach it to a forum post please, code doesn't display very well in the forum, thanks,

Here you go - wasn't sure what all you needed.

Thanks so much!

If you are using Visual Web Developer Express.

Open your skin.htm file go to view menu / error list and it will show you the errors in your skin.

The main error is here:

line 30

 < td height="100%" width="242" align="left" valign="top" bgcolor="#A4A4A4" background="< % = SkinPath % >images/menubottombg.jpg" style="background-repeat:no-repeat; background-position:right bottom" >

Where it states you are missing a closing td tag - I placed one on line 39

Do you know where I can find this feature in DreamWeaver? 

Is it odd that the skin was loaded & working fine before since I didn't make any changed to that part of the code?  I figured it was something I did while adding the leftpane sections, so I was focusing more on that area for errors in the code.

Thanks so much!

I haven't used dreamweaver in a while and don't have the latest version. If I recall you can setup something like this in Dreamweaver, have a look in the help document for information on xhtml compliance.

You can set it up to check that your document is XHTML compliant - which should pick up any errors.
