    Solved Tags that automatically close prematurely in the HTML editor

    Description of problem

    When attenpting to modify a HTML in the HTML pages management I have a problem with a <nav> tag that closes prematurely. I want the <nav> tag to enclose the entire HTML page, but the HTML editor won't let me. It immediately closes the tag. This is what I want to get:

    Code:
    <nav id="menu-wrap"> MY HTML CODE </nav>

    But instead, this is what I get after saving the HTML file:

    Code:
    <nav id="menu-wrap"></nav> MY HTML CODE <nav id="menu-wrap"></nav>

    The end result is of course that my HTML code is not enclosed by the <nav> tag.

    Thanks for your help!

    i post this

    Code:
        <div id="afflcode">
    <dl class="codebox"><dt>CODE:</dt>
    <dd><code>
    &lt;a href="http://liquidcode.forumotion.com/" target="_blank" title="Liquid Code"&gt;
    &lt;img src="https://www.filepicker.io/api/file/qxGvXHLTTSmIm18mDoZk+lqaff.gif" alt="Liquid Code" /&gt;
    &lt;/a&gt;</code></dd></dl></div>

       <div id="tm_affsystem"><center></center></div>

    then after i save and page reloads it like this

    Hello

    Our editor doesn't recognize the tag <nav>. By consequence, it closed the tag randomly and destructures the whole layout Sad
    I don't have solution! You should not use <nav> tag!

    Maybe @Ange tuteur has a better explanation than mine...

    Thanks for your understanding!

    Hi !

    I cannot seem to recreate the problem.
    http://forumbeta.forumactif.com/h2-test-de-nav
    Code:
    <nav id="menu-wrap">
      <a href="/">Accuiel</a> &bull;
      <a href="/memberlist">Membres</a> &bull;
      <a href="/groups">Groupes</a> &bull;
      <a href="/search">Rechercher</a>
    </nav>

    Are you using advanced mode or simple ? I wasn't able to recreate it in either mode, but if you're making HTML pages, I HIGHLY suggest using advanced mode. The SCEditor can cause tag corrections which are less than helpful.

    Do you mean "simple" or "WYSIWYG" mode? I use "simple". In WYSIWYG mode I can't see the tags.

    he means when editing the html page did you use the Tags that automatically close prematurely in the HTML editor Editer or the Tags that automatically close prematurely in the HTML editor Editer-html  ... you should use the Tags that automatically close prematurely in the HTML editor Editer-html advanced mode
