    evsoft page 2006...

    (do you mean evrsoft...?)

    DON'T use html editors to edit code files. Use a PLAIN TEXT editor - Emerald Editor is good, so is notepad++

    Both are freeware.

    Restore the backup file (remember... that backup you made BEFORE you started editing) - and try again using a plain text editor.

    remember... notepad++ is not the same as plain old notepad.
