You should look at the source that is delivered to the browser and
make sure it has the following structure:
<!DOCTYPE<------ only one and it needs to be the very first thing in
the output, not even whitespace before it.
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
you currently still have a second html tag and associated DOCTYPE,
head (with no </head>) and body.

This line needs to be moved outside the definition of the sites array.
Once you fix the HTML structure, look at the javascript errors the
browser reports and fix them.
