Template Failure

Question

I have been using DWCS4 for two years on my Windows 7 laptop successfully.
Recently, a little blue and gold shield has been attached to the shortcut icon on the taskbar. The icon in All programs lost it's artwork and appeared as unrecognized.
When this happened, my templates no longer translate the properties to the newly created pages. The fonts are wrong and the colors for the background were white not gold like they always had previously.
I ran a thorough virus scan on my entire computer and then again on the program itself, both reported no errors.
I  need help quickly, my sites are not updateable because when I update the templates they lose the original properties.
Just so you know I have also posted this on Windows 7 Knowledge Base in case it is a Windows 7 update problem.
Has anyone else experienced this?

Answer 1

Please ensure your Template contains valid code and paths are correctly pointing to files in your site folder.
Code Validation Tools
CSS - http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/
HTML - http://validator.w3.org/
JavaScript - http://www.jslint.com/
PHP -  http://phpcodechecker.com/
If this problem occured immediately following a Windows7 update, Windows Restore may be used to rollback your system to a point before the update.
