OK, I got it.

Your container looks like a skin, you are using objects (like the menu) that are normally used in a skin. If I use your container as a skin it works as expected

Reason for the error is the first line, you should use

<%@ Control language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Explicit="True" Inherits="DotNetNuke.UI.Containers.Container" %> in a container (and remove the second line)

Also, for both ascx files you should remove the <html>...<body> and </body></html> parts.

These are injected by DNN automatically

Yes, this is intended to be a skin. Does removing the and tags resolve this error?

Ah, you used container in your text and I assumed this was meant to be a container, but you meant a containing div in a skin....
I tested the skin in DNN6 as a skin and I don't get an error at all, so that's strange.

Did you try it on an empty page too?

About removing the extra <body> tags.
No it doesn't cause the issue, but it does prevent other issues with your css later.
If you don't remove them, you will have double <html><body> elements on your page causing all kinds of potential styling issues in different browsers.
