Why won't Blogger save this code?

You have 3 opening UL tags, and only 2 closing UL tags. Try this instead:

<!-- begin menu -->
<div class='menu'>
<ul class='sf-menu'>
<li class='rss_link'><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl + "feeds/comments/default"'>Comments</a></li>
<li class='rss_link'><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl + "feeds/posts/default"'>Posts</a></li>
<li><a expr:href='data:blog.homepageUrl' title='Home'>Home</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href=''>Index/List</a></li>
</ul>
<ul class='children'>
<li class='page_item'><a href='' title=''>Sub Menu 1</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='' title=''>Sub Menu 2</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Submission'>Submission</a></li>
</ul>
<ul class='children'>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Sub Menu #1'>Sub Menu #1</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='#' title='Sub Menu #2'>Sub Menu #2</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='' title='Sub Menu 3'>Sub Menu 3</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='' title='Sub Menu 4'>Sub Menu 4</a></li>
<li class='page_item'><a href='' title=''>About</a></li>
</ul>
</div>
<!-- end menu -->
</div><!-- #access -->
</div><!-- #masthead -->
</div><!-- #header -->

Thanks, but now look at it what it's telling me.

I'm not very familiar with Blogger, but are those three </div> tags at the bottom of the code necessary?

[writergurllw]

Well, this template was pre-made, and those last three codes were just there with it. I'm not exactly certain what they correspond to.

[Trill]

Maybe it would be faster to receive a knowledgeable response if you ask whoever made that premade? Try without those three divs, and if not, I'll have to leave this for someone else as I'm not familiar with Blogger's limitations.

Thanks for your help! I tried contacting them, but they haven't responded. I don't think they will, to be honest. >.< However, I think I can find some way around it.
