Dreamweaver Template Mystery

[mumbledawg]

I have a site done in Dreamweaver which also has fireworks drop down menus. Did this over a year ago so my memory is vauge. Now when I change the copyright date in the template and update all the pages, the code for the menus is showing on the pages.

Dreamweaver changes this: <javascript>
<!-- to this: &lt;!--

and //--></script> to this: //--&gt;

why is it doing this, how to I make it stop!

are you defining a character set?

try this in the page head:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

and refresh site cache.
