newbie question - how to use [*content*]

HI,
I am buidling a fairly complex site in modx but I am having an issue where anything I put in the the page itself breaks the template. I have to use all chunk calls even on the page itself. So, I have a chunk caller {{article}} which calls a chunk with the below code - which works fine but i dont want to have a chunk for every separate page. If i paste the contents of the chunk into the page and use the [*content*] command, it all kind of breaks . So I revert to the chunk include. This kind of defeats the purpose of the cms if I have to make a chunk for every page. What am i doing wrong?

Site is http://www50.pair.com/alarew/

To be clear.
I have a template with this content.
{{baloch_header}}

{{baloch_logo_banner}}

{{baloch_secondary_nav}}


[*#content*]

{{baloch_right_col}}

{{baloch_footer}}


The page in the list on the left has the call {{article}} when you click edit.

And Article’s content is below.
This is the only way i have been able to make it work . But its not very flexible for snippets like ditto.

Why no TVs? (It’d probably be a lot easier to understand your question if you’d wrap your code in code tags, and describe how it breaks explicitly when you don’t use chunks.)

ok,
I am not sure how to use TVs yet. Still learning but want to set this up so it can grow easily and be updated by my wife.

here is the code for the page with comments that correspond to the template.

It breaks by not formating the page correctly. The content section takes over the whole page and the right column gets bumped down to the bottom of the page. It just breaks all over. I know that is a totally useless description . Let me know if you need more.. Thanks

Don’t use MODx tags in HTML comments! MODx will process the tags wherever it finds them.

Otherwise, it just looks like you’re having some CSS issues. Have you tried validating the page? If your template works with some text hard-coded into the main content area, then replacing that text with [*content*] shouldn’t cause any problems.

oh great. Thanks. I think I solved the problem. I was pasting the content of the chunk that I was calling from the actual page into the page and was getting a broken site. I disabled the Tiny MCE plugin and all is well now. I could not figure out why modx was inserting <p> into the code until I found a thread about this issue produced by Tiny MCE. I tried to modify the js file for tinyMCE but no results - so i disabled it. Now it works fine.

I forgot to mention, the comments were there for you to see how the page was broken up in to chunks in modx . I posted the template file further up the thread. thanks
