I want to start off by saying that I am not a programmer or a web developer. I am a graphic/web designer trying to teach myself the DNN system. My company recently decided to start to use DNN and we have just upgraded to DNN6. Our first major project is to overhaul our main website and rebuild it on at our new server with DNN. We just recently upgraded to DNN6. We have been in the process of creating the skin; the desired panes are created and I am getting stuck on adding the tokens/skin objects. I am working in HTML for this process.

I am following Joe Brinkman's tutorial on skinning and www.thinkofdesign.com's skinning references (using the object tag). I have been able to successfully impliment the breadcrumb token and it is working correctly. I am stuck on the menu. As I said, I have been following Joe Brinkman's tutorial and have been manually putting the file in the proper folder, parsing the html skin in DNN and then using the skin. Everything has been working until I added the NAV object code. I keep getting an error that says:

"Could Not Load Skin: /Portals/_default/Skins/TestSkin/index.ascx, Error: The ID 'dnnNAV' is already used by another control."

I can install other html-based skin packages and run them without issue. I have even gone so far as to copy and paste their code and CSS into my skin and still get that error. I can't figure out what I am missing. Thank you.
