Template errors: "Making this change would require changing code that is locked by a template..."

i have editable region inside on template linked multiple pages can add page-specific content them.

 

1. i keep getting following error every time try update pages connected template (when upload template , auto-updates pages):

 

"you placed editable region "main content" inside block tag. users of template not able create new blocks in region. move region outside block tag if want users able this.."

 

this relates following code, don't know problem , how correct it:

 

<td height="33" colspan="2" align="left" valign="top" bgcolor="#ffffff" class="centre_font"><p class="centre_align"><!-- templatebegineditable name="main content" --><span class="leftalign">main content</span><br /> 

    <!-- templateendeditable --><script type="text/javascript"></script></p></td>

  </tr>

 

 

2.     in addition, had flash graphic in editable area in home page , want replace table following error:

 

"making change require changing code locked template or translator. change discarded.."

 

 

3.     thirdly, i'm unable place div layers shifted out of editable area area wrapped around outside of them. making virtually impossible place items fluidly. same error above.

 

does know how fix these. can post more code if necessary don't know relevant.

 

thanks

"you placed editable region "main content" inside block tag. users of template not able create new blocks in region. move region outside block tag if want users able this.."

 

this warning not error.  thrown when have placed editable region inside of block tag have -

 

<p class="centre_align"><!-- templatebegineditable name="main content" --><span class="leftalign">main content</span><br />

    <!-- templateendeditable --><script type="text/javascript"></script></p>

 

note editable region inside <p> block.  means cannot add new paragraphs, tables, divs, etc. editable region since require putting new block inside paragraph block not allowed, example -

 

<p>

  <p>this new block inside existing paragraph</p>

</p>

 

the solution *might* simple moving editable region outside paragraph block, e.g.,

 

<!-- templatebegineditable name="main content" --><p class="centre_align"><span class="leftalign">main content</span><br />

   <script type="text/javascript"></script></p><!-- templateendeditable -->

 

now, free add new blocks need region.

 

"making change require changing code locked template or translator. change discarded.."

 

well, warning bit of red herring.  can loosely interpreted follows -

 

oops.  i've found error on page.

 

to have better idea of why getting need see of code on page, css.  can post link live page?

 

finally, i'm thinking fixing these 2 things last one, i'm little uncertain describing there.  , i'm troubled use of word "layers" - people should avoid using absolute positioning until become experienced enough conclude should not use absolute positioning (at least layout tool)!
