I was told this bug was resolved. I just downloaded the latest alpha version and
it is still there. When I open some html documents, I get the following error:

"This Page can't be edited for an unknown reason"

I am unable to copy, cut or paste and the red edit lines for tables are not
there. Yes, I have saved them as html files. Yes I only open html files. I have
also resaved them after clean-up in Dreamweaver and they still have the error.
There are no html coding errors. This bug has been present for months and for
the second time I was told the bug was resolved. This is a pain because my
favorite html editor is Composer.

Reproducible: Sometimes
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open an html file in Composer
2. Error pops up saying, "This Page can't be edited for an unknown reason"
3. text or or other objects can't be copied or pasted and the red edit lines of
tables don't show up.

Actual Results:  
I will include the code of a page where this error occurs:

Expected Results:  
It should open normally. It should be able to be edited fully.

I think the culprit is the iframe. I have the same problem with another page
that uses iframe. When I remove the iframe tags, the error message goes away.
You said the solution was to remove the iframe tags. If you remove the tag, then
you remove the iframe. That would be like saying that if there is an error for
the <body><head> tags that we should just remove these tags. There really needs
to be a solution for this. I am now unable to edit the majority of the website
at work due to this error. To see the error in action, open these pages in Composer:

I don't know. I filed the bug and I no longer get the error. I assumed the code was changed.
