Image:Question_mark.gif Why do I get a new WIKI template instead of my webpage when I try and edit my webpage?

  • It may be the case only the beginning of the code seem like a new wiki template. Check to see if the rest corresponds to your page.
  • To keep the look & feel of the sites consistent, empty templates were created. There are two templates so far. They can be access through these two buttons.Image:Button_template1.png Image:Button_template2.png on the edit tool bar.
  • Because most of the wiki sites were created based on these templates, they all have some lines of code & comments that are very similar to each other.
  • Keep in mind that "<!--" indicated the beginning of a comment and "-->" means the end of a comment. For example, <!-- this is a comment -->. There are much comments embedded within these templates. If your wiki site was built using a template, the first few lines of your wiki code will be,
 <!-- This is a wiki page template.  It contains a navigation bar area and a content area. -->
 <!-- Navigation bar on the left contains 6 example navigation links -->
 <!-- Content area is left empty -->
 <!-- Select "Show preview" button on the bottom to view -->
