Situation:
I try to edit {FUDFORUM_DATA}/thm/default/header.tmpl - I add one line at the beginning (I want to use sections from selmsg.tmpl in the header):
Then I try to rebuild theme in Theme Manager. Everything seems to be ok, no errors, but from this moment compiler stops to work normally: e.g., if i put work "test" to header.tmpl, then rebuild theme - I do not observe changes visually. I.e., no changes are available in theme. Moreover, if I roll-back to the initial version of header.tmpl and try to change it slightly (any word in header.tmpl) - these small changes do not appear in output after theme rebuilding.
I want to say, that adding the line mentioned above leads to strange behaviour of templates compiler. It stops to accept any (even small) changes, and to make it work I should to re-install entire FUDforum.
PHP Version: 5.0.4
Forum Version: 2.6.12
Web Server: Apache 1.3
Maybe I represent the situation not perfectly, but I am confused and do not understand the reasons of such a behaviour.
I would appreciate any help.

{REF: ...} elements should be added manually, because they reside outside of section tags and must be found near the top, right after file identifier tag.

Thank you for quick reply.
Yes, I add {REF...} right after file id tag:

{REF: selmsg.tmpl}
{MAIN_SECTION: header forum page header}
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
<html>
tttteeeesssssttttt
<head>
<title>{GVAR: FORUM_TITLE}{VAR: TITLE_EXTRA}</title>
{META-CONTENT-LANGUAGE}
<BASE HREF="{FULL_ROOT}">
/* the rest of file */
It doesn't work. I rebuild theme - but no changes in output ("tttteeeesssssttttt"). If I remove {REF: ...} and rebuild theme - it appears, everything is ok. What is wrong?
Btw, why Theme Manager doesn't show any warning/errors if something is wrong?

If there is an error it'll will show it, it simply "skips" what it does not consider to be tags silently, because they could very well occur in the content.
The header & footer are a bit unusual in the fact that they don't support internal references, because they are not being individually compiled but rather always inlined.
You can tell that is the case by the missing
{PHP_FILE: ...} directive found in other templates.
