Hi,
I am trying to create a blogger template but each time I paste the HTML into the EDIT TEMPLATE area in Blogger then click save I get the following error:
“Your template could not be parsed as it is not well-formed. Please make sure that all XML elements are closed properly.
Anyone suggest what the problem is?
Thanks,
Richard

Have you added some custom code on your page? The error states that you have two style attributes applied to an image element, something that shouldn’t be possible in Freeway.
If you paste your HTML here, or send it to me personally I can take a look for you.

Try using Pastie.org for pasting code samples.

Or, put four tildes in a row by themselves before and after the code block, like this:
<html>
<head>
<title>Foo</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Bar</h1>
</body>
</html>

Very strange, there are extra style tags in both your images, would you be able to send your Freeway file into support(a)softpress.com so we can take a closer look please. In the meantime try this:

Thanks all for the suggestions. I have rebuilt the template stripping out any layered items and it now seems to work ok. It’s just a shame that any layered items seem to cause problems - I was particularly wanting to use the Text Box Decoration action on some items - but this also prevents the template working.

You can use layered items in the template. I’m trying to read the code jumble here to see what’s going on. My old blogspot account was made using only layered items, but it came down to the external CSS that made it tricky.
Would it have anything to do with the missing http:// prefix in the Web Address field under Upload in Document Setup that makes it not well formed? I can see this in the BASE HREF setting in the template code.
I’d be interested to find out what it is. Typically it’s either a coding error or it’s that people have ‘Classic Template’ selected.

Hi Dan,
What exactly is the “Classic Template”? I don’t ever remember being offered the choice when I have set up blogs.
Thanks,
