Problem with displaying all of template

Hi all,
I have a page that I'm applying a template to. The template has a news scroller in it and therefore has information in the header. When I apply the template to a page with no header information the template displays fine but when I need to specify where I want the header information for the child page to be displayed (i.e head, nowhere, etc) the information from the database inside is the scroller is not displayed at all. How can I solve this?
Thanks,
D

Derek,

If you apply a template to a blank page, the whole template code executes and the dependent code for the scroller should be unaffected. If you mess with the header on the child page, it may comment out that dependent code and screw the scroller. I'm not sure why this is a variable for you...why are modifying the headers on a case by case basis?

One possible solution is to implement multiple templates that cover all the different options.

Hi Jason,
Hope you're well. Was on holidays there for a week :). The link for this page is http://www.corkgsm.com/Postal/postalmain.php so you can see what's going on. As you can see the scroller on the left side is blank on this page. Here's how I attached the template. I've tried putting the header section in all of the different positions on the template wizard page (i.e. in header, nowhere, etc) but none of them work properly.

So here's the child page with the template attached. I wonder is there an easier way for you to look at this. If you'd like me to put up the file for you so you can view it easier in DW I can do that.

Thanks so much,
D
