See, that's the thing. "Go forward" from what? -A flawed foundation?
There is no "forward" to go to. It needs to be rebuilt, not patched or
amended, because the base is wrong. I don't fault the OP for not
knowing how to do something but I do fault him for an adolescent
attitude toward something which is essentially incorrect. Adrienne is
right; he needs to do some primary stuff over, and I thought that from
the very beginning. You just can't put crap which must be read by the
page outside the body tag that way and expect it all to work
peachy-keen.
