Is there any way to prevent a dynamic link template from setting the Page
Title, Page Description, and keywords for the pages it governs?

I love using the .dwt but would like to be able to set each page's title,
description and keywords....

Thanks for any ideas!
 
Sure. Just open the template, switch to Code
view, and put the corresponding tags inside
<!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" -->
and
<!-- #EndEditable -->
comments. Here's an example:

<!-- #BeginEditable "doctitle" -->
<title>Ze Banner</title>
<meta name="description" content="Ze description">
<meta name="keywords" content="zebra">
<!-- #EndEditable -->

Yep there is ... you have to do it manually though and it protects each
page's tags just like an editable region such as the main content for
instance.... but only once on the dwt before u apply it to a web ... you
have to prepare an already established web beforehand and this is part of it
.... I'll be publishing a dwt article soon that details how to do it.
