Hi,
I'm currently in the process of constructing a website for our business, based on dnn 4.6.0
We are testing it at the following URL - www.innerformgallery.co.uk
Its been working without any problems for the last 10 days while we tested and updated the skin, then the containers, however after starting some minor tweaks of the containers it started to crumble...
peripheral pages in the hierachy started to display the following error message:

-----
Server Error in '/' Application.

---

The resource cannot be found.

Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.  Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.

Requested URL: /Default.aspx
-----

This has now spread to almost every page bar "departments/brands" and the menubar (though it has affected "contacts").
It has also stopped the Login control from working

Though only thing we figure that could have caused it is our changes to the containers, but as they are extremely basic html / css, I don't understand what could cause it.

Please help!!
Mike

PS  - this is the first time I've posted on a site like this, so if you need any other info that i haven't provided post and i'll stick it on.

Should probably mention that since posting we've renamed the skin file in use, which reset the skin to dnn default and allowed us to both see all the pages and access the login control.
I reckon the problem was this piece of code in the xml attributes file:

Hello,

I have never entered details related to the content pane section in a container into the XML file, I can see looking at the skinning guide the section of code you are referring to, generally I create containers in this way:

A container can only have one content area which holds the module, so you do not really need to specify any details for the content pane in the XML file, a typical container html file would look like:

NOTE: < and > replaced with ( and ) so it displays in the forum

[DROPDOWNACTIONS](h1)[TITLE](/h1) (div class="box" id="contentpane" runat="server")(/div) [ACTIONBUTTON:1]

and the XML file would just contain the details for the actionbutton tokens.

- It's worth having a look at the DNN-Blue containers to see how they have created the containers and the details in the XML file

Sorry, I should've been more specific. That bit of code was (supposed to) refer to the main content pane of the skin, not the content panes of the containers. though as I'm typing this i think i'm starting to realise my mistake - would the container files refer to the same xml file as the skin?

(I've realised that the bit of code isn't really neccesary, it was mainly there for neatness. The main reason i'm chasing this is to avoid similar future mistakes.)

Thanks for the reply, mike

No you have 2 separate XML files - a skin.xml and a container.xml

In the skin.xml I also do not enter any details for the contentpane either. - If you look in the skin.xml file for the DNN-Blue skin you will see these details are not included.

This is the only part I can think of that may have caused some type of conflict in your code
