Lost meta data during update to .dwt

Guest

My site had utilized Shared Borders including a page banner in the top
border. The meta data was attached to this top border (I think).

I created a .dwt file, removed the shared borders and then attached the .dwt
to my .htm files (following instructions "Convert a Web Site from Shared
Borders to Dynamic Web Templates" by Jim Buyens).

However, now all of my .htm files have the same meta data (title,
description and keywords) and it can't be edited on a page by page basis as
it is greyed out.

How should I fix this situation. I do have a backup of the all the files if
I need to revert.

Thanks,
Marina

In the DWT, move the <title> and keyword and description tags so they
are grouped together, then wrap them with an editable region.

<!-- #BeginEditable "docTitle" -->
<title>title text</title>
<meta name="description" contents="page description">
<meta name="keywords" contents="keywords for the page">
<!-- #EndEditable -->

New pages will get the default tags (as in the DWT), these tags will
be editable in all pages.
